As a kid growing up in the South Bronx, Jaleni Thompson (BSBA ‘08) was fortunate to have a no-nonsense mom and a few key mentors to keep him from losing his way.
Now a successful Associate Analyst at Moody’s, the Tepper School alum is giving back by inspiring today’s youth through an organization he co-founded called D.R.E.A.M.
Developing Responsible Economically Advanced Model Citizens (D.R.E.A.M.) is a non-profit organization dedicated to teaching financial literacy to high school youth. Based in New York City, Thompson is co-founder and chief strategy officer.
