My name is Desiree, and I began my trading journey seven years ago while working at Geico in 2017. It was during this time that I was introduced to the stock market by a group of individuals who later became family to me.
I purchased a curriculum from one of my colleagues, who later became not only a close friend but also my greatest mentor. I joined his team and eventually took on the role of an analyst, mentor, and member of the Catalyst Research Team.
As an analyst, I was responsible for creating monthly newsletters and identifying companies with growth potential for investment opportunities. While I was focused on contributing to the team, I also prioritized my own education, learning from the mentors around me—many of whom became self-made millionaires.
In 2020, I decided to leave the team and pursue my own business ventures, seeking greater independence. In 2022, I joined another team as an analyst and instructor, ready to take the next step in my personal and professional growth.
I partnered with that team and became their daily pre-market analyst. I also created my own curriculum, which I taught on their platform for nearly a year. This experience was incredibly rewarding, allowing me to gain valuable insights into different learning styles and approaches for teaching new traders.
Teaching is a true passion of mine, and I believe that growth is a continuous cycle—my own growth is fueled by the success and growth of those around me.
