Hussein in real life
What makes you tick?
Growing up between Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and the U.S., I learned early on how important it is to be adaptable and intentional with life’s choices. My family’s financial challenges taught me the value of planning ahead and protecting what matters most. That experience drives my passion for helping others build clarity and confidence in their financial lives.
What keeps you busy outside of work?
I love being outdoors, whether it’s hiking, cycling, playing soccer or pickleball, or discovering new places with my wife. I’ve traveled to over 55 countries and enjoy learning from different cultures. During college, I owned a CrossFit and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gym in California, which deepened my passion for fitness, discipline, and building strong communities.
What’s one thing you are surprisingly good at?
I’ve been practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for over a decade, and it’s had a profound impact on my personal growth. It’s taught me patience, resilience, and the value of continuous learning. As a former gym owner and now a volunteer coach for kids in my community, I love helping young people build confidence, discipline, and mental toughness through the art.
