👋 Meet Johan Verdonk
A driven Mathermatics undergrad (Biomedical major, Data Analytics minor) who graduated from the British School of the Netherlands with an impressive IB Diploma in 2021. Currently enrolled at university, Johan is deepening his analytical skills through advanced mathematics and data-driven biomedical exploration.
​
Parallel to his academics, he is a natural leader:
-
Biomedical Association – Active executive, collaborating with peers and faculty to deliver events, workshops, and research initiatives.
-
Varsity Volleyball Team – Team captain, where he fosters high performance, teamwork, and resilience on and off the court.
​
His strong track record of balancing demanding studies, leadership roles, and elite-level sports makes him a dynamic, well-rounded candidate—well-suited to high-pressure environments and ready to make an immediate contribution to any forward-thinking organization.

Dr Brendan Gin, SmileFocus Dentistry
Johannes is a kind, humble and empathetic person, and relays this to the people around him with excellent and open communication skills. He understands the value of being a good team player as demonstrated in the high level of his sporting achievements in football. I have no doubt that Johannes would be an excellent candidate to follow the profession of Dentistry.
Anne Bresman, Global Director, Executive Degree Programmes, INSEAD
As a professional who has been working in the field of higher education for more than 15 years, Johan would be an great incredible asset to any university, and his wish to study dentistry would be a great contribution to the profession. I am certain that whichever path he chooses, he will be a success!
