Elijah Taylor

 

Delaware State University senior Elijah Taylor believes through social media he can reach young people who need financial literacy and might not otherwise get it. Coming from the inner city of Wilmington, Del., Elijah, a first-generation college student, believes financial planning and wealth management is the key to shaping his future and that of so many in his community.

“What inspired me to step into the financial planning field was solely the fact that I’d be able to understand information and communicate it effectively to the family and friends in my campus community – I feel like it will help our generation and any generation that comes after us.”
