Jesus Mejia

Los Angeles,CA

Summary

As a son of two immigrants, I grew up as a first generation citizen from a poverty stricken household, I made no excuses to continue being a part of a rough environment. I went out and worked two jobs straight out of high school while being full time at Santa Monica College and earned enough to begin my investment journey through a stock portfolio. I've fell in love with my investing journey thus far and have plans to reach into the real estate market soon and to safer/less volatile investments such as the bond market. My time at Santa Monica College has paid off as well by getting guaranteed admission to UCR to study Economics while also awaiting more college decisions from other UCs and CSUs in April 2023. Truthfully, I am enthusiastic of entering the financial industry and willing to take on any task to help the firms mission to succeed. Pleasant, hardworking and reliable with interpersonal skills and a great understanding of financial literacy.
