Meet the Board

Jelle Donders
(he/him) | Founding board member
Heya, after having finished my bachelor’s in Biomedical Engineering at TU/e I’m now working on various effective altruism-related projects in the Netherlands. The main one for this academic year will be EA Eindhoven! I’m a generalist at heart who’s fundamentally driven by a desire to understand how this endlessly fascinating and complex world of ours works, and how we can use this understanding to make the world we pass on a better place. I occasionally do windsurfing and am trying to teach myself to play the piano with questionable success.

(she/her) | Founding board member
Hi! I'm a master's student in Chemical Engineering, specializing in physical chemistry. I am originally from Leiden and did my BSc in Wageningen. After moving to Eindhoven in 2022, I co-founded the EA group here together with Jelle, as I care deeply about using my career to make a positive impact on the world, and am excited to give other students the opportunity to ponder these questions themselves.
Call for new organizers
We are very ambitious about our plans for 2024, which are all aimed at helping students figure out how they can use their careers to best improve the world. We want to launch different subgroups, organize inspiring events, and collaborate with other groups on the TU/e Campus and beyond.
This is why we are looking for new organizers to help strengthen our team.
There are many ways for people to help out, from organizing one-time events or running a subgroup, to becoming a board member and working on the overall strategy of the group.
If you think you might be interested in joining our team, please reach out. Even if you aren't sure whether this is something you'd want to do, we'd be excited to have a chat. We are open to discussing many types of possibilities and look forward to hearing from you!
