2nd degree physics teacher (Twente University) ←

Part of the Bachelor at Twente University is the mandatory Minor, an opportunity to get to follow courses at another faculty. I chose for the physics teacher minor, a track in which I learned the ins and out of teaching and in which I got to have a short intern as a highschool teacher. As a supplement I chose to follow the extended minor with extra courses and a second, longer internship to obtain a 2nd degree of competence. With this I am qualified to act as a physics teacher in the first three years of high school.

As can be read in the 'about' section, my Industrial Design initially started in Delft. Due to circumstances I got off with a bad start and I decided to start over in Twente, which turned out to be the right choice!

Self-employed; MOT welding service (AKP lasservice aan huis, Enschede) ←

As part of my hobby, the Citroën 2cv, I once bought a welding machine to be able to perform all maintenance by myself. I got the hang of it quite fast and realised that I was relatively good at it. As a test I tried to offer myself as a welder online and it got a lot of responses and before I knew it I had earned my welding machine back! I still perform welding jobs weekly and have gotten a lot of positive feedback, as can be seen in my advertisement.

Private chauffeur (SCC Comfort, Enschede) ←

Being a private chauffeur I have to drive clients, mostly businessmen, around in their own vehicles. This allows them to work on the backseat while traveling around the country. As a chauffeur I have to be representative and professional, while driving in a way that the client can drink a cup of coffee without worries. For this job I had to complete a driving course at Traffic Control in Rijssen.

As part of my Minor I had to execute an internship as a physics teacher. Instead of an internship I decided I applied for a small job opening at a high school in Enschede. I received the job and I got to teach physics to two atheneum classes over a period of half a year!

Bachelor assignment (Burton Car Company, Zutphen) ←

I conducted my bachelor assignment at Burton Car Company, redesigning the engin breather of their car. Beyond my assignment I also tried to fit in the design team and help out with other projects, this gave me a lot more experience than a regular bachelor assignment would have given me.

Apprentice Citroën 2cv mechanic (Ducks United, Ibiza) ←

My passion for the 2cv can be seen throughout this portfolio! An advertisement asking for an apprentice 2cv mechanic on Ibiza thus made me decide to postpone my study for half a year in order to lear all there is to know about the mechanics of a 2cv. In this summer I learned a lot about mechanics which gave me a lot of practical insight that has made me a better designer as well. I also learned a lot about starting and running a small company with all it's challenges and pitfalls.

First year competitive rowing (DRV Euros, Enschede) ←

The most popular sport for students by far is rowing. Every year, eight first year students are selected to row in the heavy weight eight for a year of intensive training in order to participate in the nation wide first freshmen competition. The main object in order to have a succesfull year is to win at least one race, which we luckily managed!
