Head of Events
Dario Maria Calidonna
I’m Dario! I’m a second-year student in Administration, Finance and Control and proud to serve as Head of Events at BSFFS. What has always fascinated me is the human drive to break rules and circumvent systems and equally, the powerful strategies designed to uncover and stop such actions. If I had to sum myself up in one word, it would be curiosity. And it’s this curiosity that I share with my fellow members of the association: together, we’re building a vibrant community where ideas flow freely and where our focus is clear: shedding light on tax evasion and the hidden economy that thrives behind illicit activities.

Head of Strategy and Operations
Wen Hua Liu
I’m Wen, a Master’s student in International Management at Bocconi, passionate about how economics, psychology, and society influence each other. I’m curious, open-minded, and I enjoy turning ideas into well-organised projects while learning from the people I work with. As Head of Strategy & Operations, I’ll make sure things run smoothly so our ideas can become reality.

Head of Italian Organized Crime
Caterina Di Liberto
I’m Caterina, I’ve always been the kind of person who asks questions and digs deeper when something doesn’t add up. That’s what led me to BSFFS, where I now bring this mindset to my role as Head of the Italian Organized Crime Division, working to expose how mafia infiltrates our world and our economy.

Co-Founder and Vice President
Daria Bobrikova
I’m Daria, a third-year student in International Economics and Management and Vice President of the Bocconi Students Forensic Finance Society. I’ve always been drawn to understanding how people think, especially what pushes them to cross ethical lines or take advantage of systems. Forensic finance brings together everything I care about: critical thinking, human psychology, and real-world complexity. With this society, we’re building a space where curiosity meets structure, where students from different backgrounds come together to investigate, challenge ideas, and learn from one another along the way.

Head of Media and Branding
Giulia Patitucci
I’m Giulia, a Master’s student in CEMS IM at Bocconi, with a strong interest in how strategy and creativity shape impactful communication. Curious by nature, I enjoy discovering new perspectives and translating them into clear and consistent narratives that strengthen recognition and trust. As Head of Branding for the Bocconi Forensic Finance Society, I ensure our image reflects our mission to investigate the hidden world of financial crime and to uncover the stories behind it.

Head of the Investigation Lab
I’m Aleksandra, a third-year student in Economics and Management for Arts, Culture and Communication. I’ve always been fascinated by the psychology behind financial misconduct - what drives people to manipulate systems and how organizations fail to detect it. Forensic finance combines everything that captivates me: investigation, behavioral insight, and analytical precision. At BSFFS, I lead the Investigations Lab, where we examine real-world fraud cases and uncover the human and systemic patterns behind them. To me, understanding financial crime isn’t just about numbers - it’s about the minds and motives that shape them.

Cyber Security Research Coordinator
Salvatore Lorito
Hi everyone! I’m Salvatore, a first-year MSc student in Accounting and Financial Management. I took part in this project to bring to life something that went beyond academic learning. I am passionate about corporate finance and the world of technological innovation, which is what led me to choose the area of cybersecurity.

Psychological Research Coordinator Analyst
Evelina Pîntea
​
Hi! I’m Evelina and I am currently in my second year of International Economics and Management. I’ve always been fascinated by the human side of economics, the way emotions, behavior and psychology shape financial choices and, ultimately, society itself. What inspires me most is uncovering the hidden patterns behind human decisions and showing that finance is not only about numbers, but also about stories, values, and people. I love transforming this perspective into projects that spark curiosity, creativity and fresh ideas. I’m excited to keep learning, sharing ideas, and growing together with this amazing community.

Investigation Lab Analyst
Ciao! I am Siddhanth, a second-year Economics and Management student. Throughout my life, my interests have centered around economics, finance, data science, and criminology (watched The Big Short multiple times). I aim to put my interests to use, investigating the black economy worth billions, maybe even trillions. I enjoy collaborating with other like-minded individuals and working to spread awareness among the masses.

Legal Research Coordinator Analyst
Emma Tardivo
Hi! I am Emma, and I am in my first year of Global Law at Bocconi. I am a diplomatic and pragmatic person, I am a firm believer that every person should be granted the same basic respect. That is why I believe in the justice of the law, and with this division, I hope to shed light on how financial crimes also impact the everyday lives of regular citizens . Furthermore, with this association, it is possible to investigate various crime cases, highlighting the differences between various jurisdictions and what remedies can be applied in cases where multiple legal systems clash on the same issue, giving a more complete insight into how financial crimes shape the law regulating the economic system. I am looking forward to meeting and working with you.
