Florine is a people-centred, creative professional with a strong passion for sustainability and community engagement. Originally from the Netherlands, she holds a Bachelor’s degree in Arts and Culture Studies from Erasmus University Rotterdam, with two minors in finance and data science & AI. She has worked across Europe and Canada in roles ranging from data analytics to exhibition coordination and marketing, developing a thoughtful, detail-oriented approach to working with people and ideas.

As an avid knitter and fibre arts enthusiast, Florine teaches knitting and crocheting workshops around the city, and loves chatting about the latest trends and events in the community. When she isn’t biking around Toronto on her silver Specialized, she’s probably at home puttering around the house fixing something, crafting, or trying to incorporate her latest curb find into her home decor.
