Trainee
During my studies I developed a fascination for the interaction between the pivate- and public sector. In addition, I have always been very interested in social-developments, news and (political) communication. To me, Public Affairs is a perfect mixture of these things, combining the best of both worlds. That’s why I decided to do a PA specific Msc, and did an internship at an interest group for startups in the Netherlands. As a Public Matters Trainee I am now part of our monitoring team and I support our consultants on various clients.
Personal
In my spare time I like to be with friends and you can often find me in the city. At the weekend I enjoy working in the catering industry and cooking for my housemates. Occasionally, I cycle or run (only when the weather is nice, of course), but I also like to spend an evening on the couch watching Ajax. Furthermore, I like to read non-fiction and history books.
