About

Luis F. Rosa, certified financial planner and enrolled agent, is the founder of Pasadena, California-based financial planning firm Build a Better Financial Future.

He is host of the "On My Way to Wealth" podcast, co-founder of the BlatinX (BLX) Internship Program and co-founder of the SER Latino Advisor Summit. Among his many industry accolades, Rosa has been named to Financial Planning's list of people who will transform wealth management, to the InvestmentNews 40 Under 40 list, to Financial Advisor magazine's 10 Young Advisors to Watch, and four times to the Investopedia Top 100 Financial Advisors list. In 2023 NerdWallet named him one of eight Hispanic personal finance influencers to follow for money advice. 

Rosa came to the U.S. at age 11 from the Dominican Republic. Growing up in New York City, Rosa noticed the lack of financial literacy in his community and was inspired by his parents to work hard and pursue an education. Rosa uses his platform to help spread financial literacy via media outreach as well as encourage younger and diverse planners to join and thrive in the industry.
