Inge Snijders is Founder of Healing Stories.
As her father, grandfather, great-grandfather, paved the medical road before her, Inge took to her inspirational figures and followed in their footsteps by studying Medicine.
However, during the last period of her study, instead of determining cause of illness, Inge’s interests developed towards the personal stories of the patients. This led her to follow her heart and commit to a Master’s degree in Documentary directing at the Film Academy in Brussels.
Following her Master’s, Inge worked in television, joined different production companies, and also worked on projects for healthcare and non-profit organizations. She also followed a drama course, portrait photography and recently she finished a studying creative therapy.
She has a great passion for storytelling and during her work, she noticed that it can support and empower people. With Healing Stories, she hopes to share a lot of stories and support and empower people.
