About
I help start-ups and small businesses with industrial design, from idea to shipping boxes as the founder of Entrive Studio in Amsterdam.

At Entrive we design, prototype and manufacture ideas for start-ups, small businesses, and entrepreneurial individuals and guide our clients through the journey from idea to manufacturing.
I help innovators with:
- 3D design
- Concept design and visualization
- Idea generation

- Prototyping and 3D printing
- Parametric design
- Logo and graphic design
