Dear lovely Maizenians,

I am Marco (if not at least fifty percent of you just said “polo” in their head I am very disappointed) and I would, truth be told, really like to be part of the new Maizena Board 2018/19 – so please come and drop by the General Members Meeting on Oct. 18th 5:30pm just before our Maizena Bowling kick-off! 

When being asked where I am from my answer is usually Hamburg, but actually that is a lie. Instead of the big city life I grew up in a small village outside of Hamburg. And by small I mean 700 people and about 64 cows living there. Before moving to Nijmegen, I spend a year in Canada (actually it was almost Alaska) and a few months each in San Francisco and Heidelberg. And sometime in between I lived in a beautiful city called Lüneburg and did my bachelor’s in psychology.

My favourite things to do when procrastinating university responsibilities are being active (feel free to challenge me on your favourite sport :P), catching up on new music releases, planning upcoming vacations, taking and editing pictures and of course Netflix. I am delighted that I will hopefully be able to add something new to this list: Being a Board member aka planning wonderful adventures for all Maizenians and making university life a little bit easier for all of us.

If you have any questions, recommendations, complains, or worries about our programme, Maizena, R or whatever else comes to your mind, please feel free to come up to me and just talk to me or of course one of the other amazing board members.

Cheers!
