After studying the Drama program at the Lemmens Institute Leuven from age 14 to 17, Jasper enrolled in the Directing Fiction Film program at RITCS School of Arts, Brussels. There he started exploring themes about his own identity, prominent ones being neurodiversity, sexuality & subjectivity. This quest for Jasper’s own sense of storytelling resulted in his bachelor’s graduation film ‚Alleen Ik (Only me, me alone)‘.
