What I'm looking for

I am looking for roles where I can research and write about political and geopolitical issues, work within collaborative editorial teams, and grow as an analyst while contributing clear, impactful content.

I am a political analyst and contributing writer with hands-on experience researching and explaining complex geopolitical developments. I have produced published articles that examine political events and institutional dynamics, and I translate dense information into engaging, audience-focused analysis.

I hold a BA in International Relations and International Organizations from the University of Groningen, complemented by a Minor in Rhetorics, and I have practical experience in event planning, public speaking, and collaborative editorial work. I also developed sales and persuasive communication skills through a fundraising role in the Netherlands.

My work emphasizes rigorous research, clear writing, and impact: I have led a university rhetoric event and authored analytical pieces for The Political Room that assess electoral outcomes and political strategy.
