Meet Our Team
Felicia Voloschin, CPA, CFP®, IAR, Rockin’ Finance CEO
Passionate about education, Felicia has been conducting finance seminars since 2007. It all started when she was asked to give a presentation to her son’s kindergarten class for career week. Knowing that her calculator was no match against the doctor’s stethoscope or the contractor’s building tools, Felicia planned an elaborate, interactive presentation about “Kinder Parkway” where the 5-year olds were asked to share their dream jobs, drive to work, earn money and problem-solve real life financial scenarios. She made the complex and boring subjects introduced, fun and easy to grasp. It made a big impression on the 5-year olds, and an even bigger one on Felicia. As news of the Kinder Parkway presentation spread, requests for presentations for all ages grew. By 2009 the groundwork was laid and Rockin’ Finance was born. Parents and teachers then asked if Felicia could de-mystify some of their financial problems with interactive seminars for adults. By integrating music, sports, fashion and games Felicia has found a way to reach all types of learners, breaking down the barriers for both kids and adults who used to say, “Finance is just not my thing.”
In addition to our self-published children’s books, plans are well underway to roll-out a variety of interactive tools to make financial literacy possible for children and adults at every age. Our up-coming coordinated books, magazines, family board games, video games and online interactive audio/visual programs, truly strive to maximize the use of “edu-tainment,” the combination of innovative education combined with entertainment.
Felicia runs her own CPA and investment advisory firms, specializing in strategic personalized tax, and business planning, along with advisory services for individuals and small to mid-sized businesses across the United States. Originally from New York, Felicia obtained her BBA in Accounting and MS in Taxation. She is a Certified Financial Planner certified in long term care insurance as well as holds life insurance sales license in several states. She worked for large international accounting and financial firms before diving into her first entrepreneurial ventures in real estate investment, a limousine service and then launching her first series of live seminars that were recognized by the New York Times (1997).
Felicia currently lives in Atlanta, GA with her two children Arie and Datya and significant other Doug.
