BIOGRAPHY:
Kelley Keehn, best-selling author and personal finance educator
Kelley Keehn’s middle name is money, and her mission is to make Canadians feel good about it. A veteran in the industry, she’s spent fifteen years as a personal financial educator and over a decade as a financial professional, and she’s learned that everyone has money problems. That’s as true for millionaires as it is for people who spend years trying to pay off their student debt.
Kelley is a personal finance educator, speaker, media personality, and the best-selling author of ten books, including, Talk Money to Me, published by Simon and Schuster. She is the personal finance contributor on The Marilyn Denis Show, and previously hosted Burn My Mortgage on the W Network. Kelley has conducted thousands of radio and TV appearances and regularly speaks for some of Canada’s largest corporations. Now, because of the pandemic, she connects with companies, audiences, and media around the globe from her home studio.
Kelley is proud to have served as the Consumer Advocate for FP Canada and was a member of the first National Steering Committee for Financial Literacy. Today she serves on the Ontario Securities Commission Senior Expert Advisory Committee, the Canadian Foundation for Economic Education and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada’s Consumer Protection Advisory Committee.
