Meet the CEO
Maresa "Resee" Scott
Hey everyone! I’m Maresa, but you can call me Resee! As the Founder and CEO of POW Financial Services—short for Pearls of Wisdom—I’m thrilled to be apart of the positive changes we’re creating in our local community! We are proud to be a 100% virtual financial services office located in District Heights, MD. While we primarily serve the Washington DC metropolitan area, we are more than happy to assist other eager clients as well. When I started POW Financial Services, I realized our mission was bigger than just my family; it’s about uplifting low-income families who often face financial exploitation and intimidation. After overcoming my own financial hurdles, I dove headfirst into learning everything I could about credit, finance, and money management. Our mission at POW is to educate and empower YOU! We’re here to boost your financial literacy in budgeting, investing, and planning so you can pass on this invaluable knowledge to your loved ones. With our motto, "each one, teach one," we’re breaking generational curses and building generational wealth together. By supporting our team, you’re helping us provide for our families while maximizing your tax refund and investing in our community. Join our movement today! POW specializes in Preparation, Business Formation, Bookkeeping, and Life Insurance!
