The exceptional education I received at one of the world’s leading ballet institutions was not limited to mastering the Vaganova method. It was enriched by serious studies in the history of ballet, theatre, music, and visual art — disciplines that shaped my enduring passion for art, history, and philosophy.

These broader interests have continually expanded my professional path beyond the ballet studio. In 1995, I founded Global Events, a non-profit organisation in Antwerp devoted to cultural dialogue.
Together with friends and kindred spirits, I brought to life around forty social and cultural projects — each aimed at building understanding between people through art.
