• Chairperson of the Audit Committee

  • Sep 2021 - Present

  As the Chairperson of the Audit Committee, I am responsible for heading the Audit Committee tasked with financial advice and financial oversight of the foundation.

• Secretary of the TEIMUN Society

  • Mar 2022 - Sep 2022

  As secretary, I was responsible for supporting the trainers and occasionally filling in for the trainers during the weekly sessions that the Society provides. These sessions aim to connect individuals who have an interest in simulating international politics, or what to develop their public speaking skills, or simply come for the social aspect. I enjoyed it a great deal, and felt incredibly rewarded to work with close friends in making our participants' Thursday a big brighter and teach them very useful skills. I was also partially responsible of organizing venues for the weekly sessions and socials, a delegation to the TEIMUN conference in the Hague, and making sure the committee internally was working in a streamlined manner.

  As the treasurer of the board of the TEIMUN foundation, I was responsible for the financial situation of the foundation, putting together budgets and general financial administration, and I am the cental spokesperson when it comes to financial matters for the board. I learned a great deal from this experience, expecially when it comes to communication, financial administration, project work, and working within a group.



European Parliament

• Belgium
• Political Organizations
• 700 & Above Employee

• Schuman Trainee

  • Oct 2022 - Feb 2023

  Het Liaisonbureau van het Europees Parlement in Den Haag is de spreekbuis van het Europees Parlement in Nederland. Het EP is een internationale instelling en de enige rechtstreeks gekozen volksvertegenwoordiging op Europees niveau. Dit maakt het EP tot een interessante internationale werkomgeving waar het publiek op de eerste plaats staat. Dit is zeker het geval op het Liaisonbureau van het Europees Parlement te Den Haag! Ik hield mij zoal bezig met het ondersteunen bij het organiseren van evenementen rondom het Europees Parlement, het European Parliament Ambassador School Programme en geven van presentaties aan geïnteresseerden rondom EU-beleid

• Stagiair

  • Aug 2021 - Jan 2022

  De VOM trekt mijn interesse door haar waardevolle positie als organisatie tussen het bestuur. Het afgelopen jaar heb ik mijn achtergrondkennis in het openbaar bestuur versterkt, en ik heb zelf ook bijgedragen aan de activiteiten van de VOM. Ik hoopte met name om een beter begrip te krijgen van de link tussen de lokale overheid en de rijksoverheid, waar ik zeker in ben geslaagd. Ik heb mij zoal bezig gehouden met de Verkiezing overheidsmanager, Reuring!Café, OMOOC, en de nieuwsbrief. Ik ben de VOM dankbaar dat ik hier heb mogen stagelopen, en veel heb mogen leren. Ik heb een sterkere achtergrond gekregen in projectmatig werken, een proactieve houding verder mogen ontwikkelen, en heb mijn communicatieve vaardigheden verbeterd.



International IDEA

  As part of the CLIO IRSP research team, we carried out a research project into (democratic) resilience, principally in relation to clean elections. It included a literature review and quantitative analysis. We presented the final reports at International IDEA to various interested researchers. I greatly enjoyed working together with my team, and strengthened my group-work- and communicative capabilities.

• Student Teacher

  • Feb 2020 - Jun 2020

  As student-teacher, I was primarily responsible for leading weekly seminars for the courses of 'Introduction to Economics' and 'International Political Economy of Monetary Relations'. These seminars revise material taught in the lectures and help students complete in-class assignments where they practice the week’s material. Additionally, student-teachers attend all lectures, meet with the course coordinator for a weekly “briefing” (to ask questions and discuss ongoing issues), and assist in the grading of exams. I enjoyed teaching tremendously, and loved conferring my interest in how economic concepts have a real-world impact and application to the students. During the onset of the COVID-19 epidemic, a certain amount of flexibility was needed to still offer online teaching, during which I learned a great deal.
