Leander D. Williams, Jr. always wanted to be a lawyer. In his mind, it was the thing to do–a way out of poverty and a path to financial freedom. However, he’d made it to law school (a dream realized) just to find it was no longer the dream. Still, he graduated from the University of Mississippi School of Law. 

While he went on to finish the journey he started, he found himself pivoting in a way that he’d never imagined. 

Now, Leander is working tirelessly to create change in his community through financial literacy and entrepreneurship. He’s the co-owner of both WK Financial Group, LLC and Maple Daisy Properties, LLC. He has a demonstrated history of working in the financial services industry.
