The Arts

 

Prior to working as a consultant, I dedicated my time and passion to the arts. For more than five years, I worked as an editor, curator and communications manager with leading cultural organizations in the Netherlands, Germany and the UK. I also co-founded four by three magazine, an independent platform exploring the intersection of philosophy and art. In this context, I interviewed some of the most brilliant philosophers and most inspiring artists of our time while traveling across Europe to report from international film festivals and art biennials.
