My name is Lin Adi, I was born in Syria and spent my years studying between there and France. I went to a university in Syria where I studied French Literature and Finance. After graduation I entered the banking industry where I started building and developing my career. In my final years in Syria before the war, I worked as a loan officer for an international bank where I learned an abundance of knowledge about credit.
After the war broke out in Syria, I left and I came to the U.S and stayed with my older brother in Minnesota. There, I worked at Wells Fargo for about 7 years where I further expanded my knowledge and familiarized myself with the American system of banking. With all my previous knowledge combined with my newly learned ones, I excelled in my career and kept moving higher in positions. I moved into business banking and became very skilled and familiar with ways to establish and build credit for businesses to help them succeed. After I was fed up with the cold weather and snow, I decided to move to Texas 4 years ago.
In Texas I landed a job with Credit Union of Texas where it was my job to engage the community and help teach them about financial literacy.
I’m a proud mother who came to the US with a 9 years old boy who became now a pre-med student at SMU and planning to be a plastic surgeon.
