Dejah N. Gay, as a woman of color, celebrates bringing a unique perspective and cultural lens to her work that is not often represented in the financial services industry. She is dedicated to creating safe, welcoming spaces for her clients, with a particular focus on working professionals, first-generation wealth builders, and those preparing for retirement. Dejah's approach balances the importance of enjoying today while planning for tomorrow, offering a blend of left-brain financial acumen and right-brain empathy and service.

Dejah was inspired by her mother, who worked at a bank later in her career and discovered the missed opportunities to learn about credit, savings, and investing earlier in life. Dejah witnessed the impact of negative financial experiences on her friends and family, shaping her belief in normalizing mistakes and eliminating shame. She is dedicated to helping her clients move their dreams forward, build solid foundations, and expand their possibilities. Whether her clients are just starting out or already have a solid financial base, she meets clients where they are and identifies opportunities to delve deeper.

Her intellectual curiosity around financial topics is matched by her love for sharing what she has learned to help others grow, emphasizing the importance of aligning current resources with a thoughtful plan. Dejah’s authentic, transparent, and dependable nature ensures that her clients feel supported and understood. More than just an advisor, Dejah is an advocate at heart, always in her clients' corner, ensuring they feel valued and championed.

Outside of work, Dejah enjoys spending time with her fiancé and their Frenchie, Bleu. She cherishes moments with her close-knit family and loves traveling to new places.
