About Aidan Klebenow

I’m a junior at Purdue University’s Mitch Daniels School of Business majoring in Finance with a minor in Real Estate Finance. I’m interested in understanding how financial analysis, markets, and business strategy intersect to drive decision-making and create value. Last summer, I worked as a Sales & Marketing Coordinator Intern at Gibson Homewares, where I developed customer pro forma financials and analyzed promotional pricing to support margin and volume decisions. I also assisted in preparing customer quotes across direct import, port-of-entry, and domestic models while supporting the development of presentation materials for national customer meetings. This experience strengthened my interest in applying financial analysis to business strategy and pricing decisions. Previously, I worked as an Assistant Station Manager at Exxon, where I independently managed daily operations of a high-volume retail location. In this role, I trained and supervised staff, managed inventory and supply coordination, and maintained operational records, strengthening my leadership and problem-solving skills in a fast-paced environment. At Purdue, I serve as House Manager for the Zeta Beta Tau Fraternity, overseeing operations for a 95-person residence and managing a monthly supply budget while coordinating maintenance and operational standards for more than 150 active members. I am also a Team Captain for Purdue University Dance Marathon, helping lead fundraising initiatives supporting Riley Hospital for Children. I am currently seeking a Summer 2026 finance internship, particularly in the New York City or Fairfield County area, where I can continue developing my financial and analytical skill set.

Experience

1. House Manager

   Zeta Beta Tau - Alpha Alpha

   Jan 2025 — Present · West Lafayette, IN, US

   As House Manager of the Alpha Alpha chapter of Zeta Beta Tau at Purdue University—one of the largest live-in fraternity houses in the Big Ten—I’m responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations and maintenance of a 90+ resident facility. I coordinate with executive members, assist in efforts with our advisor and house dad, manage budgets, organize orders, and ensure the house runs as smoothly, safely, and efficiently as it can. When a problem is presented within the house, I am always the first person that is alerted and left to deal with resolving the issue. This role has strengthened my leadership, organization, and problem-solving skills, as I work closely with both chapter members and university partners to support a positive and functional living environment for a brotherhood that holds itself to be regarded as a powerhouse of excellence.
