Summary

As a third-year student in the Social Science program at the VUB, majoring in Political Science, I am eager to take the next steps in my academic journey. My involvement in grassroots political activism, combined with my studies, has fostered a deep passion for politics and public affairs. I am now looking to build on this foundation by pursuing a Master's program that will allow me to deepen my knowledge and work towards my professional goals.
