About me
I am Anne Marie Verheijden. Theatre, film, and acting have been my passion for a long time. Since last year, I have been attending the drama academy in Rotterdam, and I would like to expand my acting experience into film as well. Additionally, I have a background in architecture, which I also work with extensively on a daily basis. I find the combination of acting and creating the most enjoyable aspect of what I do. In this, I want to be creative and create new and inspiring things.
