Lucas Bakker

Trainee Public Affairs

"In a world where interests are becoming increasingly complex and dynamic, Public Affairs is the profession of listening to what is really going on, building bridges between people and ideas, and working together to achieve direction and results."

Lucas Bakker is currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Public Administration and has a broad interest in policy development and the influence of various interests on the political stage. Driven by this curiosity, Lucas is doing an internship at Publyon, where he has the opportunity to explore the dynamic field of Public Affairs.

Connecting people, ideas, and interests to shape societal developments is particularly appealing to him.

Besides his studies, Lucas enjoys being active. Sports play an important role in his life: he has practiced judo for years and enthusiastically teaches children. He can also regularly be found on his racing bike for a cycle ride. In his free time, Lucas also enjoys good music, with a particular fondness for records from the ’80s.
