It all starts with an idea. As a natural problem solver, I’ve always noticed a gap in financial literacy knowledge among women in their early 20s. Many of my friends didn’t understand what investing was or why it was crucial. They also weren’t aware of the dangers of credit card debt and its potential negative impact on their future. Inspired by this, I created this podcast for my capstone project. My goal is to empower young women to turn finance from something intimidating into something empowering. I want to create a girly conversation, not a lecture.

“This summer, I had the honor of guiding the Advanced Multimedia Production students at FIU. Their eagerness to learn and collaborate was inspiring.

We welcomed industry professionals who shared their expertise and expanded our students’ sense of what’s possible.

Our semester culminated in a student-produced film festival, where guest speaker “Lisa Lee” Arneaud shared timeless advice: the power of building strong relationships.

I love showing up, sharing knowledge, and investing in young people. Here’s to a new school year filled with curiosity, collaboration, and creativity!”
