She left Suriname as a young child to attend school, studying at the Media Academy of Hilversum and the Maurits Binger Film Institute of Amsterdam.
In the late 1980s, she combined social work with media, producing an informational film about the cultural problems of immigrant girls attending the Anne Frank Secondary School in The Hague.
