The Haaksberger Koerier, local newspaper of a small town in the Twente region of the Netherlands, has run an interview (a, b) with Elise Nannings (above), the communications manager of Solar Team Twente (team 21). After completing a degree in Psychology, Elise began a Masters degree in Communication Science, but has put her studies on hold since September 2014 to work full time on Solar Team activities, including media and sponsorship. She compares that past year to being thrown into a pressure cooker, but comments that, in that time, the varied members of Solar Team Twente have formed themselves into a good team. When the race starts on October 18, Elise will be riding in the team’s media car. Hopefully, she’ll have good news to report on their progress!
