AFEA Expands by Adding Chapter in Scottsdale, AZ

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - Nov. 15, 2019 - PRLog -- The American Financial Education Alliance (AFEA) is dedicated to providing financial education and increasing financial literacy within communities all over the country. Today, the Board of Directors has chosen to continue to do just that, by unanimously voting Blake Essary as the new Chapter President of AFEA's Scottsdale, AZ #4735 chapter.
Prior to entering the financial services industry, Blake developed his passion for helping individuals as a Registered Nurse with over 10 years of experience in the medical field. Most of that time was spent in the Intensive Care Unit and Emergency Services. "My love of helping people was absolutely established while working as a Registered Nurse. I used to help people with their physical health, and now I get to help people with their financial health."
He also developed his love of teaching while working in the medical field. "As a Registered Nurse, a very large and important part of the role is focused on patient education. Education is just as critical in the financial sector. I have loved partnering with the American Financial Education Alliance (AFEA) because it has allowed me to continue my love of teaching and provided a great platform to communicate financial principles to my community."
Blake is an Arizona native, and is married to his lovely wife Jami. Together they have 2 children, Rylan and Brynlee. They love to spend time in Arizona's great outdoors as a family any chance they get. They enjoy such activities as hiking, camping, fishing, kayaking, or just hitting a dirt road for a drive in their Jeep.
AFEA is thrilled to have Blake Essary  join their team and assist them in their mission of creating financial clarity within communities all over the country.
