Who am I?

I’m an aspiring webcomic artist and graphic designer from Belgium, East Flanders. That’s the classic summary, but there’s some less conventional backstory too; I’ve studied abroad in the United Arab Emirates ( practically grew up there since i was seven ) and it opened me up to a lot of cultural lessons that shape my worldview to this day. after my time there i moved back to Belgium to study to be a horse riding teacher in limburg, almost died after breaking my wrist, then I discovered i also liked graphic design and publicity, so i took a course to specialise in that, too. Don’t worry, it was the non-dominant wrist, so i can still draw just fine. I have a cool scar to boot. Another fact about me is that my family often tell me i have the “devil’s luck” ( how morbid,,their words, not mine ) I’ve had head injuries, broken ankles, a broken arm, I’ve fallen down the stairs multiple times, i went skiing and some dude almost broke my back by accidentally barrelling into me. He was a nice guy though dont get me wrong, having his ski jab me in the shoulderblades gave us much to talk about despite the circumstances. And I’m still alive and well! TL/dr : I am strange, lucky, ambitious, and creative.


What do I think about A New Kind of Beautiful TV series Presented by The Fashion Hero TV series?

This series has a lot of creative elements and an aura of humour as well as inclusion, it’s refreshing to see a program that is built on making change, influencing and inspiring people and disrupting the status quo.


Why would I be a great role model for this generation and inspire people as the new face of A New Kind Of Beautiful TV series Presented by The Fashion Hero?

Gosh, what a question. My best guess as to why i would be a good role model is based on what my friends tell me; I’m the one they come to for the truth, for Comfort, for a shoulder to cry on or for a reality check. In every version of my dream life I consider how i can help others in that way. I’m a creative because i can tell that art and storytelling heals people and helps them feel seen. Not only that, but stories help us drop the veil, be authentic and connect with different people, and more than ever i think the world ( and this generation ) needs to be able to do that. The world needs to know what it is to be loved, to be seen and to give and receive kindness, despite flaws, despite mistakes and hurt. If i can, i more than anything want to inspire people to do that.
