With a double MA in English Language & Literature and Business Communication & Digital Media, Zarina has a great affinity with the arts whilst having a strong business sense.
Upon moving to the UK in 2012, she established herself as a respected writer/editor, content creator and founded her own company that provides Dutch-language tours in London. Since 2013 she has run the Award-Winning blog Dutch Girl in London, which celebrates the art, culture and history of London.
She worked as Artist Liaison at the International Film Festival Breda and Film by the Sea, offering support to an array of artists, from Anton Corbijn, Peter Strickland to Fridrik Thor Fridriksson.
In 2013 she produced Sonic Cinema at the BFI in London, featuring new commissions from Gazelle Twin, Carter Tutti, Chris Turner and Anna and Maria von Hauswolff. In the following year she co-curated Embraced at Genesis Cinema, the first London solo show of German-born street artist KEF!
