Teresa R. Martin, Esq. is a sought-after speaker, lecturer, business keynote speaker, consultant, facilitator and educator for executive conferences, ministries and educational events who demonstrates a deep understanding of importance of financial education in business and in life. Born in Long Island, NY, Teresa began her career in the legal industry in the late 90′s. Despite a lack of mentors, Teresa was inspired to move up the corporate ladder to self-employment; creating her own successful law firm in the areas of real estate, bankruptcy and foreclosure defense. Teresa speaks passionately about self – realization, the importance of financial stewardship in business and the responsibility of personal development and influence in the pursuit of financial freedom.
After 15 years of legal practice, Teresa made the conscious decision to focus exclusively on financial literacy as an aspect of business and social economics. Her core interest and passion is financial literacy for women, young adults and other emerging markets, which represent the most disenfranchised segments of the population concerning money issues.

Cathedral of NY, New York Urban League, The Coalition for Debtor Education, and The Professionals Network Organization (TPNO) in the areas of financial literacy, business ownership, real estate and stock market investing.
