‘I am raised in Groningen in the north of the Netherlands, at the age of 16, I moved to Zwolle. At early age I was really touched by music and arts. I knew at that moment, this is what I want. This is my life. At the age of nine I started with the study of classical guitar. Later on I was studying at the high school for the arts (ARTEZ) I graduated in when I was 24 years. From that time on I was starting a living as an artist., When I was 30 years I had a profound oneness experience, the falling in you centre , true deep meditation. The Unio Mystica gave me a total different view .This awakening had a great impact on me. I had to make a long journey to integrate this awakening. Now I am working as a designer, composer, and artist, and sometimes I give Satsang. I had the privilege to design beautiful commissions, such as the Dutch part of the horticultural world expo in Shenyang China, where I designed the pavilion, and several sculptures. I had several nomination and design awards.’
