Kaya is a second year science major and has always loved seeking opportunities outside of her academic endeavors. Next to her studies in Switzerland, she enjoyed having several part time jobs, doing volunteer work and sports. She was also part of TEDxAUCollege and really appreciated the networking opportunity and inspiration it offered to attendees.

As part of the Student Council, she is eager to work with the AUCAA to expose students to (some of) the numerous projects, initiatives and companies that are looking for support – especially from students with a LAS perspective and skill set. Furthermore, she hopes to continue working on the transition to Master’s degrees with the rest of the board.
