Being an enthusiastic board gamer, I made my very first board game when I was only 4 years old. A very bad one, but hey… I was just a kid. I kept creating and playing board games ever since. In 2008 I started the first big serious project and in 2015 my first board game was published: Mega Civilization. The largest board game ever. A few years later I was asked to come and work for Dutch Board Game Publisher 999 Games. For the past years I have been working in-house as a game designer, developer and editor, mostly spending my daytime job developing game concepts by international game authors into published games. This means balancing, killing your darlings, prototyping, testing, testing, testing, and then… creating the best possible theme and storyline, doing the art direction, briefing the illustrator and the game factory.
