Born in The Netherlands but grew up in the UK. In my last year of International Business in HvA, I always make time for a good afternoon tea! I’m this year’s treasurer so I’m in charge of finances of ESN and partnerships, approaching and maintaining partners, so our ESNcard has a lot of discounts for you all!

I’m an International Business student at AUAS. I’m from Ukraine. I play drums and sometimes perform in the theatre plays. I love to be lazy, read books, watch a lot of anime, and gaming. If there were no ESN events, I would never leave my house.

Jessica Qiu
