ABOUT ME
I'm a 22-year-old film student in Gent. People frequently ask me why I wanted to study to become a director and the answer is: I don't know. I love, love, love movies and I just came to a point in life I was done being passive-aggressive when watching mediocre movies ("If I would have been the director, I would have done it like this!") and decided to try making shitty movies myself. Also, I love to drink, smoke and smoke and drink coffee at the same time - which is such a hipster thing to do - but I promise you I'm not a hipster... I swear!
PHILOSOPHY
I view each day as a day to learn new and different things and meet new people that can teach me anything so that ones soul can develop in wisdom.

Music: I like music from different genres and eras, but a list of all my favorite artists would be too time-absorbing (yes, I'm slightly lazy...)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
- Shook hands with Condoleezza Rice in an Italian restaurant in Rome in 2005
... this list is in dire need of expansion!
