Pauline Kersjes
President
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!
Cathelijne Koot
PR - Social Media & Design
Head of the Party Committee
Hello everyone!
My name is Cathelijne Koot, I work for Wavemaker as an AV Specialist. I am 26 years old and I live in the vibrant Amsterdam.
As I love to host gezellige (dinner) parties, becoming a part of the WIRED. board was an easy YES for me! I think of myself as an enthusiastic person, and I always try to bring this mindset with me. So do not hesitate to walk by for a nice chat, book recommendations or tips on how to make the newest Ottolenghi dishes. As you might guess I love to cook, organize, running, reading and to play good music (Fun fact: I can DJ a little bit).
Being a part of WIRED. for me means being part of a bigger network that WPP has to offer which makes me feel at home. And I want this feeling to be available for everybody.
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!
Emilie Slagt
Treasurer
Head (& member) of the WIRED. Connect committee & Ski Committee
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!
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.
