The Association of African American Financial Advisors has named Sheena Gray, a J.P. Morgan veteran with more than two decades of leadership experience in wealth management, as CEO.
Gray’s appointment coincides with the organization’s annual V.I.S.I.O.N. Conference taking place this week in Washington, D.C. The event, like AAAA’s work in general, aims to foster the professional growth of Black financial advisors, planners and affiliated professionals, while also advocating for increased diversity in wealth management.
“We couldn’t be more proud that Sheena Gray is the one to lead us into the future,” Alex David, the interim board chair, said in a statement. “Her appointment is not only significant for AAAA, but for the financial industry as a whole, as we work toward elevating the presence and influence of women in a predominantly male industry.”
AAAA (also known as “Quad-A”) traces it history to 2001 and was founded by LeCount Davis, the the first African American to earn the Certified Financial Planner designation. Gray will seek to advance the organization’s mission to support Black financial professionals and drive change in the industry through initiatives in professional development, networking and business growth.
