Meet Monica
Monica is originally from San Diego, California. She grew up in a family whose primary investments were in real estate. In college, she worked as a computer consultant where one of her clients was an active stock and options trader. He taught her about market cycles and how he made his investment decisions. He would ask her opinions on some of his trades and he was the first person to suggest that she consider a career as an investment advisor.
Monica’s first job in finance was at the age of 15 where she was taught that hard work, perseverance, and dedication pays off.
Monica still lives in San Diego with her husband Adam and their French Bulldog, Jack. In her free time, she likes to find homes that need TLC and make them beautiful again, collect and restore antiques, spend time with family, and travel to Hungary when she can. She also enjoys sports, fashion, and philanthropic endeavors.
