Dutch-American actor and photographer based in Delft, The Netherlands.

I was born in Leiden and grew up mostly in the Pacific Northwest. As a travel-lover, I was fortunate enough to do my a minor in Environmental Science at the University of Melbourne. After graduating with a BSc in Applied Earth Sciences from the Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands, I completed the Full Time Diploma of Stage and Screen Acting at ACS in Glasgow, Scotland. Currently, I am back in Delft, working towards an MSc in Environmental Engineering.

An all-around sports enthusiast, I am a BASSC certified actor-combatant in unarmed combat and rapier and dagger, as well as a proficient mountain biker. I also enjoy recreational swimming, soccer, running, gymnastics, and dancing. Additional hobbies include writing, painting, and consuming immense amounts of tea.

My current focus is storytelling. I recently helped a group of young engineers prepare for a competition by guiding their pitching and storytelling process, then providing the voice-over for their winning video. Currently in the pipeline is an audio-drama podcast, which will be released starting May 2022.

I work with clients to get to the heart of what they want to say. This ongoing project is a series of short videos created in collaboration with Delft Center for Entrepreneurship to bring more awareness to the opportunities and classes they present students.

“In a two hour workshop Anika got us acquainted with the basics of a good story line. No boring theory, but rather an interactive, fun session with post-its, colored pencils and some acting. Even we as sober and pragmatic engineers were for a moment emerged in the creative and imaginary world of story telling.”
