My name is Loes Nauta. I graduated with a first degree Teaching degree for Drama at the "Noordelijke Hogeschool Leeuwarden" (University of Applied Sciences).

For the last 17 years I've worked as an actress, a teacher and a director. I have a degree in theater in education. In my acting years, I have worked for multiple professional Youth theater groups like Theater Terra, Burrp!, Hesp Theater makers and Teatro Munganga.

My work has always been in multi disciplinary groups, where dance, music and later on puppetry have all been represented. I have lived on Sint Maarten for many years and I am very excited to be part of the NIA Team!

Looking forward to teach the students of this great new Institute!
