Grace Tjandra

Hi everyone, I’m Grace, a first-year Management Science student, and I’m running to be your VP.

Growing up in Indonesia, I didn’t really see many women around me working in finance or investing, so most of my curiosity started alone at my laptop, trying to understand markets and how people actually make decisions with money. That’s why this society feels so important to me, because it turns something that can seem exclusive and intimidating into a space where we’re allowed to learn, ask “silly” questions, and actually see ourselves in the industry.

Over the past few years, I’ve tried to create that kind of environment in different ways. I’ve written beginner-friendly pieces on finance, interviewed investors to break down their thinking, and founded clubs like a STEM Club and a Social-preneurship Club that helped classmates access new opportunities and turn ideas into real projects that raised money for charity. 

If you choose me as Vice President, my goal is to help make this society even more active and accessible. I’d love to introduce more regular touchpoints like weekly workshops, casual learning sessions, and smaller community events where members can build skills, share opportunities, and support each other throughout the year.

I’d be really grateful for your support and the chance to help shape that with all of you.
