Bio
Manel Ripolles Avila
I still remember the first time I met Gerard. I met him in September 2021, during the first day of the Master in Finance and Accounting. We were making a speech about ourselves and our aspirations and that's when I realised that Gerard had something special. At only 21 years old he was the youngest in the class and in a very short time he had shown his amazing technical skills. I am not exaggerating if I say that he is the most knowledgeable financial and accounting professional I have ever met. Even so, that's not what surprises me the most about him. On a technical level he is a god, but on a personal level he is even greater. Always available to help any classmate. Thank you so much for letting me share this wonderful year with you. As I always tell you, you are going to go far and I will be there to celebrate with you.
