In this episode of The Blunt Dollar, Ignacio sits down with Morgaine Conway-Grim, founder and CEO of Hawks and Doves, a finance education company making investing fundamentals accessible to everyone.
Morgaine’s path to finance began not on Wall Street, but at a reception desk, before she went on to work at some of the largest financial institutions in the world. In 2024, she launched Hawks and Doves to cut through jargon and empower both institutions and individuals with capital markets fluency.
We cover Morgaine’s career leap from corporate finance to entrepreneurship, her philosophy on financial literacy, and the role of storytelling in making markets relatable. She also shares candid insights from a decade inside the financial machine and her work with the Young Investor Society.
