About

As an Africa correspondent for De Telegraaf and the Voice of America, Deutsche Welle, Al-Jazeera and others, I have been reporting on news and current affairs from all nations across the continent in text and video for over thirty years. I have a strong background in online journalism, Adobe Première Pro, After Effects and Photoshop, which enables me to produce engaging and impactful stories for various media platforms. My mission is to inform, educate, and inspire my audience with stories that showcase the diversity, complexity, and richness of Africa. I have covered topics such as politics, economy, culture, environment, health, conflict and human rights, as well as major events such as the Sudan revolution, the impact of COVID-19 in East Africa, and the deadly migration situation on the Mediterranean Sea. I have also won multiple awards for my video journalism, including the International Video Journalist Award for my TV feature on Joseph Kony in the Congo.
