Trainee
In addition to pursuing my bachelor’s and master’s degree, I have enjoyed working in journalism for the past few years. Throughout this period, I have always maintained a keen interest in The Hague’s political scene. During my master’s in Crisis and Security Management, I realized my desire to gain a deeper understanding of what happens “behind the scenes” in The Hague and Brussels, and how political decision-making processes unfold. As a Trainee at Public Matters, my goal is to learn as much as possible about these decision-making processes over the upcoming months. Besides, I will be balancing my traineeship at Public Matters with my role as a board member at The West Wing, the youth think tank of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Personal
During my free time, I participate in boxing classes, like to delve into a good book, and prefer to spend quality time with friends and family. Moreover, I enjoy adventurous travels and like to immerse myself in different cultures, countries and languages. Following these interests, I am currently taking Modern Standard Arabic lessons.
