With great enthusiasm, Charlotte works as a Junior PR Consultant at De Bruijn PR. She has a background in International Hospitality Management from the university in Leeuwarden and has been living in Amsterdam with her boyfriend for a year. Thanks to her experience in (international) hospitality PR, she has developed a passion for creating meaningful stories.

Copywriter
Bart van Ratingen
Since the founding of our agency, Bart has been working with us as our regular freelance copywriter. Originally trained as a lawyer, he has spent the past thirty years mastering the art of crafting words that truly make an impact. And speaking of crafting — he might even be a better cook than a writer (though unfortunately, our clients don’t benefit much from that talent). Bart has been living in Roermond with his girlfriend for several years now, but he’s often just a phone call or video chat away from Amsterdam, where he also works with other clients.
mediatrainer
Marije Alma
For many years, Marije has been our trusted partner for media and presentation training, and she also supports De Bruijn PR in crisis and issue communication. She began her career as an international journalist at NOS, but has since become an expert in media and presentation training for businesses, government organizations, and the healthcare sector. Marije lives in Deventer, but is often on the road for training sessions and online workshops, which she delivers fluently in Dutch, French, and English.
freelance graphic designer
Danielle Jonker
An energetic and creative designer with a passion for clean design and powerful visual storytelling. Daan has over fifteen years of experience as a graphic designer, DTP specialist, and presentation designer, both within agencies and as an independent professional. She combines a keen eye for detail with a practical, down-to-earth approach, helping brands convey their message clearly and visually attractively.
She lives in Sydney, Australia, with her husband Peter. Thanks to the time difference with the Netherlands, she can sometimes meet those tight deadlines while you’re fast asleep. Outside of work, she enjoys sports, traveling, dinners with friends, and a good glass of wine — preferably somewhere on a sunny terrace.
Network of professionals
De Bruijn PR has a large network of PR and communication consultants, designers, photographers, and other specialists. These professionals, like us, love a challenge, work hands-on, and are experts in their fields. This allows us to offer our clients a comprehensive, full-service approach.
