Zo\u00eb knows all about it! After completing an internship at Act-Wise, she is now joining our team as a permanent colleague. The newest face on the team? Perhaps. But she\u2019s certainly not starting from scratch: thanks to her internship, she already knows Act-Wise and the world of event management very well.<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">With a bachelor\u2019s degree in Business Management and a master\u2019s degree in Communication Sciences under her belt, she\u2019s all set to start her first permanent role in the events industry. And honestly? We couldn\u2019t be happier that she\u2019s chosen Act-Wise once again to take this next step in her career!<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">But who is Zo\u00eb outside of work? It\u2019s time to get to know the newest member of our team.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3><strong>Italy, pasta andla dolce vita<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">Zo\u00eb doesn\u2019t have to think twice about her favourite holiday destination: Italy, without a doubt! Give her stunning coastlines, sunny days and plenty of pasta. That\u2019s pretty much all she needs to be happy.<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">She doesn\u2019t have to look far for a Belgian favourite either. Ghent gets a solid 10\/10 from her. Perhaps her years living and studying there have something to do with it. Even so, the city never ceases to amaze her, especially when the evening sun bathes Ghent\u2019s historic fa\u00e7ades in a warm glow.<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">You\u2019re unlikely to find her somewhere with nothing going on. Give her a beautiful destination, great food and a vibrant atmosphere, and she\u2019s in her element.<\/div>\n<h3>Extra chilli oil? Yes, please!<\/h3>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">If Zo\u00eb had to choose just one dish, it would be pad Thai with prawns. But there\u2019s one condition: it has to come with a generous helping of crispy chilli oil. Preferably Lao Gan Ma\u2019s. Yes, that specific jar!<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">At the office, she tries to keep snacking to a minimum. That plan doesn\u2019t always survive when there are sweets left over from events. Because throwing away sweets? That would be such a waste!<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">So Zo\u00eb has the perfect excuse to pop into the kitchen every now and then.<\/div>\n<h3>Holidays are allowed to be comfortable.<\/h3>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">Camping or an all-inclusive resort?<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">Although she\u2019d be happy to give glamping a try. As long as she doesn\u2019t have to choose between a good night\u2019s sleep and a shower after a day full of adventure, she\u2019s happy.<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">A tent without bathroom facilities? We\u2019ll leave that to the real adventurers!<\/div>\n<h3>Ralph: the smallest colleague with the biggest impact<\/h3>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">At home, Zo\u00eb shares her apartment with her boyfriend and, more recently, with Ralph, their poodle. And their new four-legged housemate is sure to bring plenty of love, funny moments and the occasional little challenge.<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">Because raising a puppy turns out to be quite different from what she expected. That\u2019s why Zo\u00eb knows exactly which superpower she\u2019d choose: the ability to communicate with animals.<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">Imagine if she could simply explain to Ralph what he\u2019s supposed to do. Even better: if he could finally explain why he sometimes seems to have a mind of his own!<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">Whether Ralph would use that superpower to negotiate for extra treats, we\u2019ll leave that open to debate.<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-216328\" src=\"https:\/\/act-wise.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/ralph.jpg\" alt=\"Office dog ralph puppy\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/act-wise.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/ralph.jpg 480w, https:\/\/act-wise.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/ralph-350x467.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3>From intern to permanent team member at Act-Wise<\/h3>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">From her first internship to her first permanent role, Zo\u00eb has found her way back to Act-Wise. And we couldn\u2019t be happier to have her back!<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">Thanks to her previous internship, she already knows how we work, but there\u2019s still plenty for her to discover. With her background in Business Management and Communication Sciences, she has everything she needs to grow within the events industry, bring fresh ideas to the table and work with the team to create memorable events and incentive experiences.<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">We\u2019re looking forward to taking on new projects together, creating memorable moments and, above all, learning plenty along the way.<\/div>\n<h3>Curious to meet the rest of our team?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"paragraph-in-scc-markdown-text ___1ngh792 ftgm304 f1iaxwol\">Behind every successful event is a strong team.
