Johan has a big heart and a passion for helping children learn about money. It has been a lifelong dream for him to combine his passion for financial literacy with his work. He believes we invest so much in children's education and skills but consistently leave out one of the most basic skills - financial competency.

Johan is also the Managing Director for MyLife, a lifestyle platform that assists clients of all walks of life to balance financial, emotional, and social components. He is a qualified financial educator and has developed programs with local schools to educate children on financial literacy.
