Groen was born in 1958. The documented record of Groen's education and professional formation is connected with the Netherlands, where the university studies and the bar admission took place.
Groen's university studies are recorded at the University of Leyden, known today as Leiden University. Leiden University was founded on 8 February 1575 by William I of Orange as a Protestant institution, intended to educate citizens in religion and to supply the government with trained men in many fields. It is the oldest surviving university in the Netherlands.
Groen was admitted to the bar in Amsterdam in 1987. Amsterdam is the capital and largest city of the Netherlands, and the admission marks the earliest dated professional milestone in the record.
Groen is documented as a partner of Resident Associates, with a connection to the firm's Milan, Italy, location. Milan is the capital of the Lombardy region in northern Italy and a major center of commerce and finance.
The Amsterdam bar admission of 1987 is the earliest dated professional event in the documented record. The later partnership is recorded without a start or end date.
