Join Tone and Larry for an insightful chat with Jade Hendricks, AVP of Investor Ops at a private equity firm, as she shares her two-part mission: leading by example and transforming perspectives on wealth and legacy in underserved communities. In this candid conversation, Jade reflects on her upbringing in Milwaukee, financial empowerment, and the pursuit of racial equity. After this episode, one thing is clear—Jade embodies the African proverb "Each One, Teach One." Don't miss this impactful dialogue!
Excerpt from an online article:
“Her foundational childhood experiences and her learnings at Morgan Stanley drove Hendricks to a deeper calling - to transfer her wealth management and financial literacy skills to help educate and empower underserved communities. She is actively involved in teaching financial literacy and providing 1:1 mentoring, and college and scholarship coaching to dozens of high school students through her roles with nonprofits SecureFutures and ArtWorks for Milwaukee. She also recently launched her "Building the Dream Foundation," which is a scholarship fund of her own to award two high school students with a college scholarship each year, and she shares tips through her "Personal Finance Fridays" newsletter and as host of the Corporate Creative Podcast.”
