Kaiden Phillip

About Kaiden

From an early age, I was always curious about finances however, I never had the motive to learn till high school. My parents challenged me to raise money for school, which lead me turning a hobby into a side hustle. Turning my passion for sneakers into a side business helped me develop crucial financial skills I couldn’t have learned in a classroom. The real-life lessons of patience and discipline are currently helping me budget my finances through my first year of computer engineering. Not only will financial literacy help me throughout college, but it will follow me throughout my career and every finical goal I set.
