“Hi everyone!
My name is Ismay and I am very pleased to become Maizena’s next president! Coming from the beautiful as ever neighbourhood of Nijmegen, I am very familiar with everything going on around here. Growing up, I always wanted to be an astronaut, but after high school I started studying pedagogical sciences (my favourite movie notwithstanding is Interstellar; if you haven’t seen it yet then I highly recommend you to do so!). Next to my studies, I like to play my guitar, spend time in nature, ride horses, have fun with friends and enjoy good food in nice restaurants.
After studying in Lima for one semester in 2019, I gladly started the Research Master. Last year, I enjoyed being part of the Workshop Committee and now I am glad to fulfill the role of Maizena president. Strange times are happening with the pandemic and all, but I still want to make sure that every Maizenian will get the most out of the last part of his or her student life. Despite the situation I hope we will have lots of fun together, I am looking forward to seeing you all both off- and online!”
