Pauline Kersjes

President & Marketing

Head of the Party Committee

Hi there!
My name is Pauline Kersjes. I previously worked as a Digital Video & Audio Specialist at Greenhouse, but as of January 2023, I work as a Project Manager Branded Content at StudioM.

True Brabo, but in 2022 I moved to Amsterdam, of which the city stole my heart. I love to explore the city and to visit theatres, museums and markets. Furthermore I like to do sports, such as running and dancing and I love to paint and read. Also, I am a big dog-lover, I love psychology and I am doing a study graphic design in the evening hours. Always in for a drink, a deep conversation or a good party. Feel free to reach out to me for anything!

Lysanne Spierenburg

Finance

Head of the Ski Committee

Hi!

Nice to meet you! My name is Lysanne, I'm 24 years old and I live in the beautiful center of Utrecht. I work at Hill & Knowlton and I'm thrilled to be the newest board member of WIRED. I'm super curious, social, determined and I love organizing things, whether it's at work or with friends.
My journey with WIRED. began during an intern lunch back in 2022. Since then, I've organized the WPP ski trip for 2024 and have now joined the board - a fantastic opportunity to connect with other young, spirited professionals at WPP.
Being part of WIRED. means feeling more connected to everyone at Amsteldok and beyond. We all know those awkward elevator rides with people we don't know. By meeting each other and learning from one another, we develop new skills and build a great network. Who knows what WIRED. might bring your way. Let’s grab a coffee sometime!

Ellen Main

Secretary

Head of the Connect Committee

Hi everyone!

My name is Ellen Main, 26 years old, and I’ve been working as a management trainee in the WPP team since August 2022. I live in the vibrant city centre of Rotterdam where I love to spend my free time with my friends or partner on a sunny terrace, cozy balcony or in the park while enjoying some good food, music, wine, and an occasional craft beer. I really like to participate in high-energy sports such as crossfit, boxing, or a rocycle class. But I can also appreciate a quiet moment, reading a good book on the couch. You can find me (almost) every workday in the Amsterdam office and I’m always open to grab a coffee together and have a friendly chat!

David Morskieft 

Ambassador role

Head of the Initiative committee

Hey everyone!
David Morskieft here, nice to meet you! I'm one of the newer faces of the WIRED. board and glad to have the opportunity to introduce myself to all of you. 

Currently working at MeMo² as a Strategy Consultant, I come from a background in Branding and have a passion for creativity, storytelling, and networking. On a personal note, I'm a big foodie and enjoy spending my free time at the Amstel in the sun when possible. I believe that it's important to de-stress enough and am convinced our at-work social environment should contribute to that. Therefore, I'm eager to contribute to an even bigger and more eventful WIRED. year than before and hope to entice you all to join as many events as possible.

I'm looking forward to getting to know each of you and getting the most out of our WPP network together. If you have any questions or would like to chat, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Emilie Slagt 

All round

Hello!

I am Emilie Slagt and work as an AV Specialist at Wavemaker. I am 26 years old, live in Amsterdam with three friends and in my free time I love to cook, travel and play Hockey at the Amsterdamse Bos. I am a very optimistic person and love to organize things for my family and friends cause U get energized when I have people around me and make great memories with them. This is the reason why I also joined the Wired Meets committee to connect with fellow WPP colleagues by organizing great events. Fun fact: I am a real dog lover. I grew up with two Labradors (Moos & Guus) and cannot wait to buy my own dog(s) in the future!
