Ontmoet de effectmakers die gaan voor jouw applaus
The team


Afra Hendriks
Creative


Afra Hendriks
“Events should make an impact and contribute to organizations' HR and marketing and communication goals.” If you start a conversation with Afra about events, bring your toothbrush! The fact that she studied psychology is reflected in the conceptual ideas with which she surprises and touches clients. And like no other, she can translate that 'high-over' plan into content, event design, speakers, workshops and everything that visitors experience live.


Anouk Dijkstra
Art Director


Corianne Visser
Graphic Designer


Corianne Visser
When she works on designs behind her iMac, she is silent, focused and dead serious. It all has to be right down to the last millimeter. A pure designer. When you put her at the lunch or drinks table, an effect maker will unfold with the funniest and most infectious laugh ever. Anyway, that's because her colleagues are really funny too... but still... that laugh... lovely!

Jasmin Homminga
Young professional Jasmin weet precies waar merken naartoe moeten. Haar studie Eventmanagement aan de Hogeschool rondde ze bovengemiddeld af. Bij effectgroep* zet ze diezelfde drive in om communicatiecampagnes en eventstrategieën naar een hoger niveau te tillen. Kansen om impact te maken met een campagne of event? Die ziet en bedenkt Jasmin met een frisse Gen-Z blik.

Karlijn has organizing events in her DNA. From tight schedules to surprising productions: she takes care of it. After a position elsewhere (at a valued colleague agency), she is now ready to build events and creative productions that really make an impact at effectgroep*.
Karlijn switches faster than you can say “playbook” — but doesn't miss a detail.

Mariska van Eijden

Mariska van Eijden
She sings, dances, cycles, plays table tennis, plays guitar, designs and animates. In short, an agile type. And that is exactly what she likes at effect group*.
Mariska literally brings movement to our designs. After years of graphic design, she further developed into a motion graphic designer. And it's all over now! It is mainly the variety that makes her overjoyed. From logo animation to leader package and from storyboard to final product.
