AMANDA THOMAS WILSON | MY STORY

I am a native of Ann Arbor, Michigan.  After graduating high school, I relocated to Nashville, Tennessee to obtain a Bachelor of Business Administration Degree with a concentration in Management from Tennessee State University.  Upon graduation, I stepped into the world of Corporate America and landed a career in the banking and financial industry working for a federal regulatory agency.  Although I felt I had a great career, good benefits, flexibility, and able to travel the country, I knew it still would not be enough.  Financing my own college education by way of student loans positioned me to have a load of student loan debt that I knew I would be responsible for upon graduating.  Knowing the average college graduate salary was between $40,000- $50,000, I knew I could not afford to pay back my student loans and live the life that I truly wanted to life.  The moment I realized that, things got real...

Realizing my dreams, goals, and vision for my life was bigger than my nice corporate job and career; I made a conscious decision to become an entrepreneur.  Developing a true passion for personal finances and entrepreneurship, I knew that was my lane to launch my own business and help others.  Anyone who knows me knows I truly believe that you have to create the lifestyle you want.  There is nothing too big and nothing is too much, so why can't you have what you want?  So I positioned myself to not only help make my own dreams come true, but to help many other people make theirs come true as well.  

I am committed to helping others organize and manage their money, feel empowered to take control over their finances, and create a lifestyle they love... at the end of the day it's all about feeling empowered to live the life you desire. 

My professional background extends over 12 years in regulatory compliance for financial institutions in the government sector. I hold a Masters of Art in Management and Leadership from Liberty University and a Bachelors of Business Administration from Tennessee State University. I am a Certified Personal Finance Counselor and Certified Quickbooks ProAdvisor, and a member of the American Med Spa Association and the American Association of Daily Money Managers.

I am the Founder and Owner of Luxe Financial Strategies, a financial management company for small business owners, entrepreneurs and individuals inspired position themselves financially to create lifestyle you love... what I like to call a "Luxe Life".  I believe that creating wealth and having the financial wherewithal sets a foundation and can position individuals to create the lifestyle they deserve and desire in addition to enhancing other areas of life.

"Everyone wants a nice lifestyle, but the reality is... it takes money to make it happen"
