About Michael Ojo
Board of Directors
Micheal Ojo's mission is to level the playing field for both accredited and non-accredited investors seeking to invest in reputable investment opportunities. He is actively educating groups of minorities and non-minorities who want to bridge the knowledge gap in finance, entrepreneurship, and investing.
Coming from a background of immigrant parents that descended from Nigeria, Micheal grew up with a diverse and cultured childhood starting in Newark, NJ. Growing up he learned the challenges that most of his peers faced due to their environment, race and lack of resources and vowed to help anyway possible.
“I Have a Dream” Foundation is a true testament of making the community of Newark a better place for not only the youth but for all and that is why it was important for him to join the board.
Micheal believes that everyone deserves to live without financial burdens and has made it his life's mission to educate as many people as possible about the importance of investing. Before co-founding two companies in 2013, Golden Door Asset Management and VM Global Consulting, Micheal worked as an investment banking analyst at Goldman Sachs and US Masters Residential REIT.
Micheal Ojo has a solid background investing in real estate as well as businesses and holds degrees in Finance and Business Management from Seton Hall University.
