Dionne is founder of Make it a Story and works within EHdK as project leader of communications for FrIZA Mental Health and Resilience. She also supports EHdK in marketing and communications. One belief is central to her work: we solve social problems only when we continue to see and really know how to find each other.

Dionne connects people, organizations and ideas so that change becomes concrete and tangible. She helps parties to tell their story in such a way that it touches, moves and opens doors. She looks for the undercurrent: patterns and stories that others do not yet see, and uses creativity to enable new solutions.

Dionne lives with her boyfriend in Amsterdam and is learning the Arabic language.

“Stories are the shortest route to another – and the fastest way to lead as many lives as possible.”
