Hi everybody! My name is Alice and I will be your secretary this year! I am French-American although I grew up in Brussels, Belgium. I recently graduated from my Bachelor’s in International Business and I am currently doing my Master’s in Marketing-Finance.
I started dancing salsa 5 years ago and have been unable to stop since! I did expand my registry to other dances like bachata fairly soon after, and more recently ballroom (which is awesome!).
As your secretary, I am the one in charge of admin and sending you guys emails regarding stuff like deadlines (fun, right?). I am also the one replying to most of your emails, so if you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out to me 🥰
I am very excited to be on this year’s board and help our dance family grow.
See you all on the dance floor,
Alice
Treasurer – Annemarie Vergeer
Hi, I’m Annemarie, your favorite treasurer of this year’s board of Let’s Dance! I’m currently in my third year of my bachelor Circular Engineering. Music and dancing have always been important to me. As a kid, I tried out a lot of different dance styles but stopped when I started high school. When I began studying in Maastricht, I joined Let’s Dance, which has been the best decision I ever made. Now, I’ve been dancing salsa and ballroom for two years. Besides dancing, I sometimes do yoga and go for a run.
As your treasurer, I’m responsible for handling the finances of Let’s Dance! I manage the budget, keep track of all the income and expenses, and make sure your money is well spent! If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to me! See you on the dancefloor!🤗💃
Commissioner of Dance – Annabell Chedor
Hi everyone! My name is Annabell, and I am this year’s Dance Commissioner! I was born and raised near Heidelberg in Germany and moved to Maastricht to do a Bachelor´s in Psychology here at UM. I fell in love with the city and decided to also stay here for my Masters. Currently, I am in my first year of the Research Master in Clinical Psychology. 🙂 I grew up doing many different sports and also tried Ballroom dancing when I was 15 years old. Since I enjoyed that a lot, I joined Let´s Dance about 2 years ago and fell in love with Dance all over again:) I mainly dance Latin and Ballroom and SaBaKiz, but this year I also want to try out more Hip-hop and Contemporary as well. Outside of dance I love to read, do Yoga and go for long walks and when times allows it, I join Clubpower at UM sports with friends. 🙂 As you Dance Commissioner, I will mainly be in charge of organising Classes and Workshops, so if you have any complaints (I hope not :)), recommendations or ideas I am your point of contact. If you are interested in helping us plan new and exciting workshops, let me know and join the Workshop Commitee! Please don´t hesitate to reach out to me via text or in person, you will find me at most classes and at the practice hour for Ballroom whenever you have any questions or want to share ideas. I am excited to work with all of you! 🙂
See you at dance class! <3 Annabell
Commissioner of Promotions – Romy de Waal
Hi! I’m Romy, a 21-year-old currently serving as the Commissioner of Promotions. This year, I’m responsible for everything related to promotions, from creating videos and photos to designing Instagram content. My favorite part? Making posters! I’m in my second year of studying Communication and Multimedia Design at Zuyd University.
I grew up in Culemborg, located between Utrecht and Den Bosch. Last year, I started ballroom dancing with my boyfriend, but I also have a background in ballet and contemporary dance. If I find more time, I’d love to join those classes again! Besides dancing, I enjoy crocheting, knitting, yoga and expressing my creativity in various ways.
