Grace Zhou

Founder

Hi! I’m Grace Zhou, a junior at the Bergen County Academies in the Academy of Business & Finance. I’m passionate about financial literacy, animation, and creative education and hope to apply these skills in FinGoose!

Our Story

FinGoose grew out of a mix of my passions: international relations, economic justice, and creative education. Through my participation in Model United Nations, I became deeply interested in global wealth disparities and how financial systems shape people’s opportunities. The more I researched, debated, and wrote, the clearer it became that financial inequality begins with something simple: unequal access to financial knowledge. At the same time, I discovered how much I loved teaching and breaking down complex ideas for younger students. With a background in animation, video editing, and graphic design, I realized I could combine these creative skills with my interest in economics to build something unique. FinGoose was born from that intersection. It's designed to make financial literacy fun, visual, and accessible for kids who rarely get exposure to these concepts. What started as a passion for global issues transformed into a hands-on mission to empower the next generation with the financial confidence they deserve.
