Vivian Tu

In this candid and engaging conversation, financial literacy expert and TikTok star Vivian Tu shares her journey from the Wall Street trading floor to Your Rich BFF – her entrepreneurial global mission to make the financial industry less "male, pale, and stale." While Vivian excelled working under the only other Asian woman at JPMorgan Chase & Co., who served as a close mentor and the very early “blueprint” for Your Rich BFF, after two and a half years, Vivian’s experiences with burnout and a toxic work environment led her to leave Wall Street behind.

After success at BuzzFeed, Tu realized her financial expertise could serve a bigger purpose – providing financial literacy and education beyond the big banks, for marginalized and minority communities. Tu became a social media sensation, TikTok star, and wildly successful entrepreneur, and she shares her commitment to finding the right path, her obstacles and success along the way, and lessons about wealth in this uplifting talk.
