Summary

Highly motivated and always willing to learn new things. I have gained lots of financial literacy through working for TD Ameritrade/Charles Schwab as well as Robinhood where I worked basically the same exact role. Also, I have learned how to adapt to different personalities whether it be a colleague or client. I'm looking to find a company to work for in the long-term. Currently Studying for the July 2025 CFP exam.
