Hi, I’m Wendy!
I am a Founder, Chief Investment Officer and former Wall Street Trader. I freed myself from my corporate job for more creative endeavors and have never looked back.
Since then, I’ve founded three companies and speak to large groups of people from a variety of backgrounds on the topic of financial literacy. I now have time to focus on the projects I feel most passionate about.
After spending years with ultra high net-worth clients and now, friends, I’ve learned that the majority of financial education we get, if any, is bullshit.
On top of that, I'm not sure how we got the idea that money is a “guy thing”. In reality, women need to be more financially educated than men. In most cases, women live longer, have to take a career break for family- whether they chose to have children or they are dealing with aging parents- women tend to fare worse in divorce and death of a spouse, and still, amazingly, get paid less!
Wendy Raizin is a seasoned financial professional with a rich background in investment banking, entrepreneurship, and commercial real estate. An Oxford alumna in Economics and Finance, she gained experience as an Arbitrage Equity Trader on Wall Street at Oppenheimer & Co., and later, at Wyser-Pratte Management in NYC. Now, as the Chief Investment Officer at Mattis Advisors Inc. in Miami, Wendy oversees investment strategies and business development. She is passionate about financial literacy education and is emerging as an authority within the next generation of investors. Her blend of expertise, leadership, and dedication makes her a standout in the industry. Wendy’s latest endeavor, MoneyChick, is her passion-project.
