the finance student is heard in study-related decision-making. If you have any worries, issues or improvement suggestions regarding

Board Members

Member, Ben will be giving his input in various different events during the year and spreading the word of KY Finance onwards.
The last two summers Ben has had the opportunity to gain experience from the anti-money laundering and anti-corruption functions.
Currently he is gaining experience in marketing activities. In his free time, Ben spends time with his girlfriend, family and friends and also

Stella is famous for her mind-blowing poker skills she got to show in the annual KY Finance Poker Tournament. However, in her spare time,
she enjoys good books and doing sports rather than gambling. In the board of 2018, Stella is eager to get to know the people within Aalto
finance as well as to devote herself in attracting more female students to the faculty.

He is also looking forward to contributing to various other events and developing KY Finance.
