Gavin is a 19-year-old American stock market expert from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He has over seven years of experience in stocks. His passion and love for stocks started way back when he was just a 13 year old. Gavin loved watching YouTube videos and messing around with stocks. The stock markets fascinated him and he knew it was something he could see himself doing as he got older.

After his freshman year in high school, Gavin started taking stocks a bit seriously. Throughout the next couple of years, he was trading in class while still trying to learn as much as possible to equip himself with the necessary knowledge. As a high school athlete, Gavin was obsessed with getting a scholarship to compete at a level Division 1 school for swimming. After he eventually made it to the University of North Carolina, he found it challenging to keep up with the stock market while being a college athlete.

The COVID-19 pandemic gave him plenty of time and space he needed to focus on the stock market. The pandemic had limited all forms of movements and gathering, with schools and colleges being suspended indefinitely in the early 2020. Gavin automatically turned to trading stocks as it was something he wanted to do for a long time. Within a short period of time, he got really good at trading stocks and was making a lot of money. He got very excited and decided to start sharing his success and teaching other people about stocks. Since there was continuous lockdown due to pandemic, Gavin turned to social media platforms to educate interested and aspiring investors.

He turned to TikTok as his preferred platform to teach others. He started his TikTok account with zero followers but had gained over 100K followers within the first two months. His secret to success was constantly posting an averaging of 4-6 posts a day for two months. He also went live almost everyday on TikTok to connect with his audience. Currently, his TikTok account has over 250k followers, and the numbers are only continuing to grow everyday.

Discord became the social media platform that he could fully utilize for educating aspiring investors on stocks. He started a Discord server with his friend Ali Saghi. Discord was brought to Gavin's attention by another big stock discord team with whom he worked together for a while. His decision to start his own Discord server came after he learned how it worked. His stock discord gained 50,000 followers within one month and is now one of the most popular Discords for stocks. Through Discord, Gavin shared his knowledge of finance, giving more emphasis on stocks.

His secret to success on TikTok and Discord was his ability to create a personal relationship with all his followers and use his real name across all social media platforms. Gavin is active on TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, and YouTube. He is growing Luxury Equities to help investors turn their equities into luxuries. He plans to start a hedge fund sometime in the future.
