Committee

Uma Fazlić (Chair)

Hello everybody! I'm Uma and I am the Chair of this year's wonderful Pienter Committee.
I am a Physics student from Croatia, and I have just finished my first year in this amazing city and university. During it, I have learned so much (Physics and life wise) and got to know so many wonderful people - a great number of which I have actually met at my own Pienterkamp last year. Aside from Physics, I enjoy reading and writing, nature, people, and music. I wish upon you an even better or at least as good and fun of an experience as I had in my time in Pienter, and I promise to do my best to ensure this. I am looking forward to meeting you at the camp and welcoming you to the exciting world of science and university. Please always feel free to come up and talk to me during the camp!
Looking forward to meeting you all! :)
See you all at Pienter camp ;)

Matilde Nielsen (Secretary)

Helloo, I'm Matilde, a second year student in Mathematics and Physics. Besides that, in my free time I enjoy practising my volleyball and tennis. I'm the secretary of Pienter, meaning, that whenever you want to contact us via email, you will most likely be talking to me:)) Two years ago, I went to Pienter as a first-year, and really enjoyed it, meeting many of my current friends. Last year, I went there as cooking crew, which was itself a fun and interesting experience. This year I will be helping in organizing it. I am super excited for this year, as I am sure it is going to be as fun as it was in past years.
See you at Pienter!!

Anna Kipluka (Treasurer)

Hey! I'm Anna and I'm the Treasurer of Pienter.
I will be starting my second year in physics next year and I'm very excited to meet all of you! I am always down for some board or card games and I like reading and hiking. I'm also very poor at chugging vla or beer so do not worry if you are too!
See you at Pienter Kamp!

Maud Smit (Activity Manager)

Hi everyone I am Maud, the activity manager of the 2025 Pienter committeeeee

Robin Janssen (Crew Manager)

Hi hey hello!
I'm Robin and I am the Crew Manager for Pienter 2025. I'm currently a second year student of Mathematics and soon to be a third year. I love board games and in particular Magic the Gathering. Talk to me about anything and I'll probably be very interested if I'm not busy doing crew manager stuff. That is to say boss people around and make sure everyone is doing their job. Hopefully everything goes well and I can just twiddle my thumbs instead :3 Probably won't be case but that's what I'll be there for.
See you at Pienter!!

Yara van der Wielen (Public Relations)

Hi beautiful people! :P
My name is Yara and I'm your Pienter PR manager :)
As a first year astronomy student who's been to Pienter 2024, I HIGHLY recommend you join us for the 2025 edition!!
I'm a born and raised Groninger, I know the city inside and out, so whether you're new here or already familiar, I'd love to share what makes it special. It's no surprise then, that my hobbies include going to music gigs, bars, theaters, concerts, you name it. I also love creative stuff and spending time outside in nature :)
As for the camp, it is my responsibility to keep you updated on how FIRE we expect this year's Pienter to be, but even more so: to help make it come true!
