Hi, I am Eline and this year I will be your Secretary. For my function I will mainly be working on internal matters like taking the minutes for the G.A.’s and the membership administration. This year will be my fourth year of my bachelor of psychology and next to my studies I also work with plants. In my free time I am busy with more plants, learning to sew and thousands of other little creative projects. If you have any questions you can always contact me on secretaris@labyrintleiden.nl and otherwise I hope to see you in the common room!
Treasurer
Treasurer: Janick van der Hoorn
Contact: penningmeester@labyrintleiden.nl
Hey everyone! I would like to introduce myself to you. I am Janick, 22 years old, and I am currently in my sixth year of university. Of these six years, I've been studying psychology for three years now, and the remaining time I've spent studying mechanical engineering, which I'm almost finished with now.
As Treasurer, I am responsible for Labyrint's finances. This means I prepare budgets and manage all expenses. I work closely with the Treasurers of the committees, checking their budgets and supporting them as needed. In addition, this year I supervise the Community Committee and the Wellbeing Committee.
In recent years, I have enjoyed participating in Labyrint activities and organizing great events with my fellow members of the AJWcie and Introcie. I am very much looking forward to the challenges this board year will bring and the personal growth I will experience myself and see around me. Moreover, I look forward to the fun in the Common Room and the many cups of coffee that will undoubtedly accompany it!
Commissioner Career & External Relations

Contact: extern@labyrintleiden.nl
Hi! My name is Justin, I am 22 years old and currently pursuing a master's degree in Economic & Consumer Psychology. This year I have the honor of being the Commissioner Career & External Relations at Labyrint, where I will be working on expanding the knowledge about career opportunities for psychology students and acquisition of the association.
This will be my 4th year at Labyrint where I have already enjoyed doing committees like the Interrailcie, AJWcie, SoAcie and Kascie. I am looking forward to work hard for the association and to help the Congrescie and Conneccie to organize beautiful events. I am always in for a chat so come and see me to chat!
Commissioner Communication
Commissioner Communication: Axel van der Goot
Contact: board@labyrintleiden.nl
Hello, my name is Axel! I am 22 years old, and this year I have the privilege of taking on the role of Commissioner Communications. This means that I mainly maintain contact with various parties to ensure that Labyrint remains well-visible and that more people get to know Labyrint and what we do. Additionally, I apply for subsidies for certain Labyrint activities. This year, I also hold the position of Vice-Chair of the association, supporting Fleur with her tasks.
When I joined the trip to Krakow during the 2023 short study trip, I realized that our association is an incredibly warm and welcoming place. Before the trip, I didn’t know anyone, but I was so well accepted by the group that after four days, I knew everyone. Last year, I became an active member by joining the Social Activities Committee, where I learned a lot in a short time and made even more friends.
If you are still unsure about becoming an active member, have a question about the association, or just want to chat, please don’t hesitate to approach me or send an email to bestuur@labyrintleiden.nl.

Hi! I'm Sophie, 21 years old and about to start my first year of the Master's in Economics and Consumer Psychology. As Commissioner Internal Relations I am responsible for updating the social media and the website of Labyrint. I will also work to increase the social bonding within the association, partly through the committee game. In addition, I will take the pictures at many activities and put them online for everyone to admire!
I have been a member of Labyrint since my first year of psychology and have been able to do several committees. This year I will be overseeing the Long Study Trip Committee and the Party Committee!
