about me

Amsterdam, Netherlands
From the Netherlands, I work for both Dutch and English-language media. I research documentaries, television programs and other media productions; write scripts and articles; and work as a producer. This PORTFOLIO shows a selection of my reports, stories and documentaries. Socially engaged, with a focus on underreported topics such as migration, sexuality and identity. Ranging from investigative journalism to breaking news. And everything in between.

De Afhaalchinees - Thuisbezorgd nominated for De Tegel 2026

De Afhaalchinees - Thuisbezorgd has been nominated for De Tegel 2026 in the feature category. De Tegel is one of the Netherlands’ leading journalism awards.

In the nominated episode, filmmaker Qian van Binsbergen examines the relationship between adoption and sexual abuse. Why are adoptees disproportionately affected? And what does that reveal about vulnerability, silence and a lack of protection?

For this production, I was part of the editorial team, alongside Bart Peters, TJ Leewerik, Nouhaila El Khannoussi, Roché Wong and Freek Zonderland. And with Qian van Binsbergen, of course.

The awards ceremony will take place on May 6, 2026. Watch the documentary here: https://lnkd.in/ezK5iKtV

De Afhaalchinees - Thuisbezorgd is genomineerd voor De Tegel 2026 in de categorie Achtergrond.

In de genomineerde aflevering onderzoekt maker Qian van Binsbergen de relatie tussen adoptie en seksueel misbruik. Waarom blijken geadopteerden relatief vaak slachtoffer te worden? En wat zegt dat over kwetsbaarheid, zwijgen en het ontbreken van bescherming?

Deze productie maakte ik samen met Bart Peters, TJ Leewerik, Nouhaila El Khannoussi, Roché Wong en Freek Zonderland. En uiteraard met Qian van Binsbergen.

De uitreiking vindt plaats op 6 mei 2026. Bekijk de documentaire hier: https://lnkd.in/ezK5iKtV
