After making her mark on film journalism as founder and Editor-in-Chief of online film magazine Film Inquiry, Manon de Reeper moved into the filmmaking space as a writer/director. She has since shot two short films: Uncontrol, a horror (now available on KweliTV and Youtube), and Radiant Choice, an experimental, narrative music video to the beautiful "Clair de Lune" by Claude Debussy. She is currently in early pre-production of her first feature film, psychological horror Detain Me - with exciting attachments yet to be announced.

In 2023, she co-founded her production company, Deviant Minds Productions, with her partner Anna Tran.

She is a co-author of the forthcoming ANIMUS graphic novel series, headed by Star Trek: Discovery, The Spiderwick Chronicles and Locke & Key showrunner Aron Eli Coleite, to be published by Aftershock Comics.

Between 2019 and 2024, Manon was the Vice President of Hollywood non-profit production company and social action organization Women of Color Unite, and is the co-founder of its revolutionary mentorship program #Startwith8, which connected close to 1700 Women of Color to Hollywood professionals.

She has a Bachelor's Degree in Clinical Psychology and a Master's Degree in Global Criminology from Utrecht University.
