Members
The Undergraduate Finance Board is composed of 12 elected students: the Chair, the Vice Chair, Student Activities Chair, UCS-UFB Liaison, and 8 at-large representatives. Each representative is responsible for supporting and representing approximately 20 student groups. Questions on budgets, policies, or anything related to UFB should be directed to your student group's assigned representative.

Hi everyone - my name is Julian! I am a senior studying Applied Mathematics - Economics and am originally from Cleveland, Ohio. I joined UFB my freshman year and have been working ever since to improve our transparency and make our funding process easier for student groups to navigate!

Outside of classes and UFB, I spend my time playing jazz piano, volunteering as an SAT tutor, and taking part in the Brown Consulting Club.
