Hi, I鈥檓 , a UCU student majoring in Environmental Science, Human Geography, and Anthropology. I have a strong passion for sustainability and environmental protection, and I love exploring how these fields connect to real-world challenges.
What excites me most about entrepreneurship is the transferable skills it teaches. It鈥檚 not just about starting a business鈥攊t鈥檚 a mindset that can be applied to any project or initiative. Last year, I attended many Playground events and even helped Chiara Palmeri set up a cat caf茅 at Science Park. While the project didn鈥檛 work out, the experience taught me so much and introduced me to an incredible network of people.
Right now, I鈥檓 not working on a specific project, but I find daily inspiration in the Playground community. The workshops, discussions, and connections here constantly shape my perspective, even beyond entrepreneurship. More than anything, I love the people I meet at Playground and the skills I gain through engaging conversations and hands-on learning.
My advice for students interested in entrepreneurship? Start by joining Playground workshops and events! It鈥檚 a great way to meet entrepreneurs, hear their stories, and learn from both their successes and challenges. And if you have an idea, I highly recommend booking a free coaching session with Stijn or Wiepke鈥攖hey鈥檙e always happy to help, no matter what stage you鈥檙e at.
Let鈥檚 connect! You can find me on !
