Penney Ooi
Location: Pleasanton, CA
Previous Career: Loan Officer
After earning a finance degree, Penney began working as a loan officer for a mortgage company. However, this career quickly proved challenging and not likely to help Penney leave a lasting financial legacy for her family. She soon began searching for a new opportunity. Because of its compensation structure and level playing field, Penney decided to became an independent registered representative at TFA.
"At TFA, I'm in a nurturing environment where people encourage you and help you to succeed. I love TFA because here everyone has the same opportunity to win."
Brian Loiseau
Location: Denver, CO
Previous Career: Accountant
Brian earned a good income and traveled the world as a management consultant for one of the Big Five accounting firms. After 10 years, the long hours and demanding work got to him, and he left to start his own business. "I wanted a life, not just a living," he says.
As an independent Registered Representative at TFA, Brian no longer trades his time for a salary, and has increased his income and built a successful business: "The most exciting and gratifying part of my career is the ability to help my team and clients pursue their goals."
