Date and time
Description
GoGirl Finance is excited to present an evening with Alexa VonTobel, founder and CEO of LearnVest.com brought to you with generous support from Goodwin Procter and Blackrock.
GoGirl Finance will be talking with Alexa about the personal finance landscape, the benefits of financial planning, her New York Times-Bestselling book, Financially Fearless, and the LearnVest platform.

In addition, there will be a Q&A so that Alexa can answer your burning personal finance questions.
Please join us at the offices of Goodwin Procter for an insightful, motivating and practical discussion followed by drinks, nibbles and networking!
