MONTANA JENNINGS

TANGAMBALANGA,VIC

Summary

I'm wanting to expand my knowledge and education with Financial Planning. After being in the financial industry for 9 months I have fallen in love with this career path and where it can take me. I'm eager to help people live their best life and be able to achieve their financial goals. I have met and worked for many amazing Financial Advisors who have all attended Swinburne and have spoken of how great of an educational experience they had. I'm hoping to be able to achieve the same dream and education as many of my colleagues.
