Personal Notes

“To Whom Much Is Given, Much Is Required” my mission as an NFEC Certified Financial Education Instructor is to share financial literacy in communities, especially, the black community, and to do my part to address the racial wealth gap. While I recognize that many economic and systemic issues exist, I understand the importance of financial literacy and the positive impact financial education can have on communities. My goal is to help others build a solid financial foundation and to help to change the narrative and build a solid future.
