Who is Quinty van der Geest?

Hi, that’s me. Nice to meet you! Currently I am traveling around the world with my guitar and building a business. Until October 2023 i’ll be in places like Asia, United States, Europe and Canada.

My drive for music and being on stage is something i’ve had for as long as I can remember. Therefore I am now building towards fulfulling my dreams.

 “I can’t live an ordinary life, when I feel like the extraordinary is waiting for me”

My voice is my brand

Every time I sing or speak with someone they say “wow you have a really nice voice” which gave me indication I should do more with it. Now, singing has always been something I loved doing, but i’ve started to expand my range by using my voice for other things as well.

Every sunday I upload a vlog on YouTube about my travels, my lifestyle and the events that happened that week. In my vlogs I combine singing with my journey in life. I show different perspectives of my entrepreneurship and show vulnerablility.

I love telling stories and my dream is to make storytelling my fulltime job. I’m pursueing this by challenging myself in doing new things and creating a bigger expertise.

Since March 2021 I’ve released 4 original songs on streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon music. All of my music is written in a way that the listener creates their own meaning to it. 

On january 17th 2023, I launched my first ever online course ‘Jouw stap naar High School USA’ under de brand name ‘The Quinty Academy’. In this, Dutch, course I inform teenagers about the possibility of doing an exchange year instead of choosing a study right away.

 

The stage is where I belong

It doesn’t mater what kind of stage or how big, the stage is where I belong. Wether that’s through music, my vlogs, being visible on social media or through plans I  have for the future. 

I’m looking into reading for audiobooks, becoming a voice actress and starting a podcast. I want to expand the Quinty Academy on many levels and keep growing as an entrepreneur. 

 Everything comes with a touch of ‘Quinty’. I imply my romaticism to be vulnerable and authentic. I like being creative and making music, my drive to become the best I can be and the sparks that fly through my stomach when i’m doing what I love. 

“Feel to be real”
