We are shaped by those who came before us and, in turn, we help shape the lives of those who come after us.
Nationwide’s Juan José (JJ) Pérez knows this all too well.
He grew up watching his father attend law school at night while working two jobs, making sacrifices while Perez and his siblings were young to not only better provide for their family in the long term but also be an example of what they could achieve.
Those lessons continue to resonate with Perez today, both as president for Nationwide Financial’s Corporate Solutions and as a mentor for Latino youth in the Columbus community. He’s a fierce advocate for educational opportunity and empowering young Latinos to view education as a tool for leadership and advancement.
Education changed the trajectory of his father’s life, and Perez knows it will be a catalyst for the Latino community in Ohio and beyond.
