creative bij effecgroep*Afra Hendriks

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.

Graphic Designer

grafisch vormgever designbureauCorianne Visser

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!

Gineke Geerds

Gineke ensures that our finances are correct. And that is a comforting feeling. And although she's very creative, we're glad she doesn't do creative bookkeeping. She doesn't know black money and red numbers, even though she likes to make pink invoices every day.
