Director • Lead project management at Postmachina
Amsterdam Area, Netherlands
I graduated from the Utrecht Graduate School of Art in 2007, a BA with honours in Interaction Design and a MA in Interactive multimedia. I studied abroad for 6 months at the University of New South Wales in Sydney Australia.
After my studies, I founded Postmachina together with Arjen Sondag and Renato Valdés Olmos. We are a multidisciplinary studio with firm roots in Interactive Design. We work for a broad variety of clients, ranging from research foundations to insurance companies. We established a sound reputation in a short period of time. We will do everything within our powers to keep our studio a reliable partner.
Within our design studio we are developing E, E originally started as our graduation project and is now becoming a company on its own. I love the diversity of my position as a manager and a designer within postmachina. E is a tool for social networking in the real world. For more information on the company check out www.hellomynameise.com.
Next to my commercial activities I am a member of the exam committee for BA Interaction Design students. A member of a discussion group of bright people and myself called Dfir. Dfir is a group where we all share our views on the emerging ambient intelligence economy and the impact of the implementation of RFID.

We are Postmachina and we design experiences. We believe in highly innovative, immersive and integrated products. We design for clients, but we also create new products for the world of tomorrow. Our philosophy is about making technology adaptive to human beings through design, intelligence and ethics. Because the world is hard enough as it is. We shouldn’t be troubled by our use of daily objects, media or services. That’s why we design experiences.
