Lacy Garcia, Valery Molone

Lacy Garcia Lacy Garcia, Founder and CEO of Willow, created the wealthtech platform to help women and NextGen investors find compatible financial advisors who truly understand their needs.

Supported by BlackRock, Willow’s platform has gained industry recognition and was named a 2024 Wealth Management Awards Finalist for its innovative “dating-app” style matching, which uses AI to connect clients with advisors based on personality traits and shared interests, creating deeper connections.
