I've been a member of DWH since 2014 and served on the board for several years. Because of this, I know how much happens within the association and how many people are involved. Sometimes, amidst all the hustle and bustle, something can arise that you need to talk about in confidence. Please do so — it's never a bad idea to email a confidential counsellor. I'm happy to listen to you and, if you'd like, share my thoughts. In my free time, I enjoy playing softball, gaming, and exploring beautiful cities. I also enjoy writing articles for the Andersblad magazine or going to concerts every now and then.

I am a member of DWH since I was I was 18, right before corona. Since then, I made a lot of friends in Outsite and I am still an active volunteer. At the same time, I am also busy with my study (Nanobiology) and with my handball team. Aside from that, I like to travel, organise fun activities, going to movies, explore cafes in Delft... I keep myself busy but I always prioritise lending a helping hand to a friend or to anyone who needs someone to talk to :)

In my downtime, creating things brings me the most happiness, whether it's through woodworking, beer brewing or designing escape room props. Besides, I enjoy bouldering, taking leisurely strolls with my dog, and listening to music. If you ask my friends, they'll probably tell you I'm a bit on the shy side, but don't let that fool you! I am always open to a heart-to-heart conversation. Ensuring everyone feels safe and comfortable is in my nature.
