ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm River, a game developer from Amsterdam specializing in tech art and tool development. My interest lies where tech and art meet, from making shaders to building tools that enable artists to work easier. While getting my degree as a game programming, I already started studying the art side to combine both skill sets in my work.

Outside of development, I enjoy games of all kinds, from VR to board games. I'm part of a long-running D&D campaign going on three years, and I love LEGO, sci-fi like Doctor Who and Star Wars, and creative tech such as robotics and 3D printing. I've also been playing violin since I was 5 years old.

ACHIEVEMENTS

My accomplishments include receiving a Science Maker Award from astronaut André Kuipers for representing the Netherlands at robotics championships, where I've won 3x gold at national level and 1x gold and 1x bronze on global level. As part of an orchestra I've performed in the Royal Concerthall three times and partook in a filmscore. A personal achievement is 100%ing every TT Lego game, twice.

CoderDojo Amsterdam At CoderDojo Amsterdam I volunteered as an IT teacher. CoderDojo is a worldwide organization, hosting workshops for young kids to get their first tech experience.

As part of my role I helped write lesson materials, taught workshops, or assisted fellow volunteers in their workshops. We hosted workshops once a month, outside of school vacations, usually on Saturdays.
