All about me
Field hockey
I have been playing field hockey for 11 years and in this picture you can see that my team got honored because we were the champions of our region. I play field hockey 5 times a week and teach hockey skills to younger girls.
My American family
This year I have been living with people that were strangers to me 9 months ago. I adapted to their lifestyle and became part of their family. Adapting to new situation is one of my better skills.
Steve Jobs quote
This is my favourite quote! I used it when I applied to United World Colleges. Unfortunately, I did not get in but this quote always stuck with me. It reminds me that dreaming big dreams is not wrong, but can help you further in life.

After high school I am attending University in Amsterdam. My first choice is liberal art and science but also history is something that I want to consider.
In 2015, I graduated high school in the Netherlands. My grades made me eligible for joining the Socrates Honour Society. This means that I belong to the top 10% of Dutch high school graduates. They organize activities every month and provide scholarships for active members.
