Meet the 57th Hoc Habet Board Members

BRIAN DE GROOT

CHAIRMAN – Hello there, I am Brian de Groot and I’m the 57th chairman of Hoc Habet. I am currently doing my fourth and last year of International Communication Management at Fontys. I have fenced sabre for over four years now and I also fence at another fencing club in Eindhoven. I tried fencing at my old boxing club and I fell in love immediately. Next to fencing, I like to play the piano, play video games and go to stratum. Hope to see you at the training!

OKAN FAKOGLU

SECRETARY – Hi there! My name is Okan Fakoğlu, and I am the Secretary of the 57th Board of Hoc Habet. I have been fencing with Hoc Habet for almost a couple of months, but I am really enjoying it so far. I mostly play in sabre, but I sometimes like to try other weapons. I am currently in my graduation year of Biomedical Science at Avans Hogeschool in Breda.
Furthermore, I love reading, watching movies or series, exercising and cooking. Can’t wait to fence with and against you during training hours
