Ken Greene (aka the Engineer of Finance) is a financial advisor and founder of Greene Finance & Insurance. Ken began his career as a professional engineer who subscribed to a lucrative investment portfolio that included aggressive joint ventures, real estate, and the stock market.

However, shortly after the market crash in 2008, he pivoted to the insurance and financial industry - where he quickly realized he was one of the few people who cared about educating their clients rather than just selling to them.

He recognized that the financial industry needed to be run with precision and integrity like the engineering community he had come from.

Subsequently, he founded his own company, Greene Finance & Insurance, and has developed an approach to finance with an emphasis on growing your wealth and protecting it with traditional financial principles and investments off Wall Street. His desire to continue to educate and help people led to the creation of his podcast, ENGINEER OF FINANCE, where he talks about how to enjoy today and have a wealthier tomorrow.
