I started to study music when I was five years old in a small private school. A few
years later, I wanted to play the piano, so I went to the local music academy to study
classical piano. I studied classical piano for 9 years, but in between I got into pop
music and synthesizers as well. I began playing in bands and started to write different
kinds of music, from pop, to jazz, to classical.
Someday, when I was about 15, I was wandering around in a music store. Actually, I
wanted to buy a small mixer, but my eye fell on a bass hanging on the wall. Since there
was no bass player in my current band I impulsively bought a bass and learned to play
it on my own.
When I was 19 years old, I applied to the jazz department of the conservatory in Antwerp.
In 2012, I graduated for electric bass and also got a teacher’s degree.
Nowadays, I’m a freelance musician and a teacher in the first place, but also
a producer and arranger from time to time.
