Trainee

As a trainee at Public Matters, I hope to contribute to the lobbying process as quickly as possible and refine my analytical and, most importantly, strategic skills. After years of studying the EU, I am also eager to delve into Dutch politics. I bring knowledge of international trade, the energy transition and critical minerals, and EU technology policy. I am very much looking forward to my time here!

Personal

In addition to my interest in politics, I enjoy reading about political philosophy and engaging in swimming, cycling, and running. I also love cooking—with varying degrees of success.
