Amira Garwood

 

While on her path to certification, Amira Garwood applied for and received the CFP Board Women’s Initiative (WIN) Endowed Scholarship at the end of 2024, which awards women like Amira up to $5,000 to pursue CFP® certification. Amira has since graduated from Purdue University’s CFP Board Registered Program. She now works full-time as a financial services representative and has passed her Series 7, the Securities Industry Essentials Exam and Series 66, and she plans to take the CFP® exam.

“I really wanted to find something where I was helping others and that’s when I found the CFP® exam and the financial planning major.”
