Hear about a successful ”Better Together” project from two very engaged students

Better Together Project Summary: As part of the Better Together project, Olivia Kelly  and Aiden Huber had the opportunity to co-lead a financial literacy workshop at Howard W. Blake High School in collaboration with UT’s Personal Finance Club. They helped develop engaging activities that emphasized the real-world impact of budgeting and saving. They got to experience how receptive and curious the students were.  They covered essential topics like budgeting, saving, investing, and equipping students with tools that aren’t normally emphasized in high school curricula. The session was incredibly well received, and they have since been invited back to present for their summer boot camp and in the fall. 

Olivia Kelly is a junior at the University of Tampa, majoring in Finance with a minor in Entrepreneurship. She currently serves as President of the Phi Upsilon Chapter of Alpha Kappa Psi and Vice President of Finance for UT’s American Marketing Association. Olivia has interned with Webull Financial, a leading fintech firm, and will be returning this summer to continue her work in compliance and regulatory research. With a strong passion for corporate law and the broker-dealer industry, she plans to attend law school after graduation and pursue a career at the intersection of law and finance.

Aiden Huber is a second-year student at the University of Tampa, pursuing a Bachelor of Science in International Business and Accounting. He currently serves as Chair of the Professional Programming Committee for Alpha Kappa Psi’s Phi Upsilon Chapter, where he leads initiatives aimed at fostering members’ professional growth. Aiden is also the founder of A-Swim Concierge Lessons, a private swim instruction business he built from the ground up.
