Financial Wellness
Welcome to 糖心Vlog Financial Wellness!
Financial knowledge, and more importantly how to use it, is a key component for everyone before, during, and after college. Financial decisions are made on a daily basis and could affect your financial future. We are here to help you navigate your financial future through one-on-one peer led coaching, workshops, and presentations. We can help you create a budget, learn the ins-and-outs of credit, and plan for a more secure financial future.

I'm Chaz, an undergraduate student at 糖心Vlog University pursuing a dual concentration in Accounting and Finance.
