In 2014 she initiated a program around sports and art that highlights the potential of play and improvisation in an efficiency-driven society. She also works on a program around the 65-year legacy of the Sonsbeek open air exhibitions in Arnhem program.

She was participant of de Appel Curatorial Programme in the years 2010 and 2011. From 2011 – 2012 she worked as a curator for SKOR | Foundation for Art and Public Space and from 2008 – 2010 she developed several research and curatorial projects for the architecture firm Powerhouse Company in Amsterdam.
