SUZANNA CHEN

Suzanna developed an interest in finance and investing at a young age and has embraced it with gusto. An 11th grader at The Bryn Mawr School, she has helped grow the Investment Society (a student club) from 10 to 70 members and advocated for a school-wide investment fund managed by students themselves. As a result of their persistence and vision, the finance department awarded the Investment Society $100,000 over 20 years with $5,000 to actively invest annually. For her school’s capstone project, she is designing a course for middle school students to build their financial literacy, and she volunteers at the Immigration Outreach Service Center teaching adult immigrants financial skills. She’s begun her own auto detailing business that has a loyal client base, and applies her digital savvy as the volunteer social media manager for Volcano Hotpot and BBQ in Owings Mills.

“What stands out most about Suzanna is her intentionality: She channels her passion and interests into meaningful contributions that positively impact our community.” —Farrah Evans, The Bryn Mawr School
