Riley Clausen
Founder
From a young age, Riley knew that he was interested in finance. It dictated so much of the way we live our lives, yet no one ever talked about it. It soon became apparent that it wasn’t talked about because there was a lack of understanding. That’s what ignited his journey of self-education and his desire to educate others.
Riley completed a Bachelor of Commerce at the University of Melbourne, majoring in Finance and Management. From there, he spent the next four and a bit years working alongside brokers and lender partners in aggregation - specialising in Commercial and Asset Finance. During this time, he also completed a Cert IV in Finance and Mortgage Broking, as well as a Diploma of Financial Services. Now, he wants to pass on those learnings to other like-minded and ambitious individuals.
Riley is a proud captain of the Lilydale Football Club and has recently taken an interest in coaching the next crop of talent coming through. He is an even prouder partner to Sally, and most weekends start with a walk with their Hungarian Vizsla, Sadie.
