FOUNDER/ Creative Director

In my career, I’ve worked as an executive assistant, marketer, designer, and in a tech start-up as a head of creator partnerships. In all these experiences, one thing was clear: working with other creatives has always been the most fulfilling path for me.

In 2023, my life flipped upside down. In an effort of reinvention, I booked a one-way ticket to Amsterdam for a two week vacation. I never left.

In a city where I knew no one, cultivating CLBHUIS was my way of building a home. Starting again. Surrounding myself with creatives across industries has not only pushed me professionally, but inspired me to contribute shamelessly and fearlessly to the people and projects around me.

Community is the thread that ties us together, and builds resilience when we need it most. Let’s grow together.

PARTNER

My career in the creative industry started in production. Producing work for some big boys like KFC, Unilever, and Coca-Cola. I noticed my mouth watering but my creative side felt a bit dry.  In search of a creative outlet I found myself joining local creative competitions in Amsterdam, and to my surprise, winning them. 

The love for creative work prompted me to begin working as a creative. And yes, many people have called me ‘Tyler the Creative”. Currently I'm happily employed at Happiness Amsterdam.

I'm originally from New York City. In comparison Amsterdam feels like a small town. 

The mission of my involvement in CLBHUIS is to empower creatives through community. I never understood why people would climb over others to get ahead in life. Wouldn't it be nicer if we all got there together?
