My Bio:
Shay Olivarria is a financial literacy coach and the owner of Bigger Than Your Block, an organization geared toward educating students on money management. As an ambassador for financial freedom, Shay travels all over the country to educate young people on responsible financial decisions.

Shay’s passion for motivational coaching was ignited seven years ago when she began outreach efforts for the San Diego Community College District. She advised students on the college process and has continued to reach out to youth on a number of levels. Shay is dedicated to community activism and specializes in mentoring gang-involved and at-risk youth, and has been able to channel her life experience into her professional and entrepreneurial efforts. Shay explains, “Aging out of foster care made it clear to me that I need to take responsibility for my financial future. I started reading books, attending seminars, and piecing as much information as I could together. After working with students in truancy and mentoring programs, it became apparent that these kids needed the same help I needed.”

After studying non-profit organizations, public companies, and micro-credit loan systems, Shay began public speaking at a peace building organization and became interested in sharing her experiences. “During the seminars, I found myself including tips on money management. Students wanted to contact me personally to get information about scholarships and from there, I created a structured program. I wrote a curriculum and a training manual, and began shopping it around.”

This program is now known as Bigger Than Your Block, a financial literacy organization that incorporates popular culture, games, and group discussion into the educational experience. Topics include Money Management, Understanding Credit and Credit Cards, Understanding Auto Financing, Understanding Retirement Accounts, and Goal Setting. Through these sessions, she has fostered relationships with several participants. To date, Shay has spread financial wealth tips to hundreds of students across the country.

Shay’s ultimate goal is to be the largest money management education program in the country. “I want all the students that participate in a Bigger Than Your Block workshop, series, or webinar to understand how money management works and be able to make their own decisions regarding their financial futures.” She’s well on her way of achieving this feat by working vigorously with programs and school systems. She has partnered with several community organizations including Independent Lens, Girls Incorporated of Dallas, Texas, Los Angeles Urban League, and the SAY San Diego. Shay currently writes a “Money Matters” column for SquareRootz.net, an urban lifestyle website. In addition, she is finishing her first book “Money Management in 1 Minute: Small Articles about a BIG Topic.”
What I do best:
I enjoy working with at-risk students. My message of hope, determination, and growth resonates best with people who have experienced difficult challenges and are working to get past them.
I charge a fee of:
$501-$1500
Some notes on how I charge for my services:
Fee is determined by audience size, location, and length.

Shay, welcome to SpeakerSite. I'm glad you're here.

Please take a moment to finetune how much email you get from SpeakerSite. If you work on this for a minute or two, you will avoid being notified too often about activity on SpeakerSite. Here is some advice on the issue.

With thousands of members, SpeakerSite is the largest social network for public speakers and event planners. Our substantial continuing growth is good for all of us. The more speakers and event planners we have, the more opportunities for connecting more speakers with more audiences.

Anyway, it’s good for you — and all of us — if your profile is great and if you help spread the word. Here are links to two pages that can help:

1. How to Make the Most of Your SpeakerSite Profile.

2. How to Spread the Word About SpeakerSite. Would you please take a moment now to invite your friends? (You can use the "Invite" function in the main menu.)

Feel free to join (or start) more Groups -- or put any question in the Forum area. (Of course, make sure your message is appropriate for the particular Forum discussion you‘re visiting.) And feel free to contact me or Rob Emrich. As the co-founders of SpeakerSite, we are here for you.

Thanks!
