About

For Jeroen, all the world’s a stage. Hailing from Antwerp and raised throughout the rich landscapes of Flanders, Jeroen has always had a fascination for eclectic curiosities. With his family's frequent relocations within Belgium, he cultivated strong social skills from a young age, continually crafting new friendships. During his boyhood days, quests were his currency, sometimes driving him to daring escapades, like pillaging apples from a neighborhood orchard and peddling them on street corners with his cousins. It was during these formative years that Jeroen's vivid imagination laid the foundation for his affinity for storytelling, which he channels through various artistic mediums. Photography, his silent narrative, captures worlds without words or melodies – a skill he honed through a Master's in Photography from Kask in Ghent. Another form of spinning yarns takes shape in music, where he’s center stage in two bands, lending his voice to both. From hardcore punk to the metal scene, heavy music has always offered him a cathartic release for his emotions, fostering a sense of unity and dialogue. His love for creative expression brought him to Base, where his role as Growth Director allows him to be a catalyst of sorts for sharing Base’s inventive artistry with the world. And, in case you're wondering, Jeroen is an amateur kebab connoisseur.
