Meet the new secretary - Wouter Siezen

My name is Wouter Siezen and I will be the next Secretary for the MARUG board. I am currently 21 years old, and really like to row, go out with friends and go to a party from time to time. Three years ago I moved to Groningen from Hilversum to start my bachelors in Business Administration. After participating in multiple committees over the past three years, I realized I was ready for a next step in my student life in Groningen. So a board year at MARUG was the perfect challenge for me!

I first became interested in MARUG because of its strong focus on marketing and career development. After hearing positive stories and being approached by Carine, my interest grew even more. After great coffee meetings with Carine, I became very enthusiastic about the idea of doing a board year. Not long after I met with both Sophie and Job, who shared their ideas about the MARUG board, and convinced me to apply for the position of secretary!

About a week after my application for Secretary, I received the news that I had been chosen for the position of Secretary of the MARUG board 2025-2026. This day has marked the start of an exciting new adventure and a new chapter in my student life.
