About the Founder & CEO
K. Kenneth Davis, widely recognized as "The Trans Capitalist," is the visionary Founder and CEO of the award-winning brand and company THE TRANS CAPITALIST L.L.C, P.A.C.E. Academy, Author of The Money Talk, and certified data scientist. With a stellar reputation as a leading financial literacy consultant and activist, Kenneth is a coveted financial resource for the queer community.
A relentless advocate for change, Kenneth created The Trans Capitalist after personally experiencing the dire financial statistics that affect transgender people. When he found himself dead broke, he made a commitment to change his financial situation. After successfully escaping debt and overcoming other desperate economic challenges, Kenneth realized there were no financial gurus or resources representing people like him in the industry. This inspired him to step into the role himself and dedicate his work to empowering the transgender community.
Founded by Kenneth, P.A.C.E. Academy addresses the significant economic challenges disproportionately affecting marginalized communities, including low income, high debt, and unemployment. Constructed on his pillars of Pivot, Accountability, Coaching, and Empowerment, P.A.C.E. provides tailored financial education and support to help individuals build lasting financial independence.
