Terance Takyi: From Wall Street to Turntables - A Journey of Passion, Dedication, and Success

Terance Takyi, an African American trailblazer in finance and entertainment, has seamlessly blended his illustrious career on Wall Street with his passion for music, emerging as a prominent figure in both fields. With an 18-year tenure on Wall Street and his current role as Managing Director at a leading financial institution, Terance has demonstrated exceptional prowess in wealth management, complemented by his alter ego, djTAO, captivating audiences at high-profile events worldwide.

His journey began at UNC Greensboro, where a chance encounter with a representative from the non-profit Inroads launched his finance career. Internships at First Citizens Bank led to offers from prestigious firms like Wachovia and JP Morgan. In 2006, he chose to start his career on Wall Street with JP Morgan, advancing from analyst to associate, before moving on to roles at ING (now Voya Financial) and Goldman Sachs. Despite facing challenges and microaggressions as one of the few Black professionals in the industry, Terance's expertise and determination propelled him forward.

In 2021, Terance made history as the first and only Black Managing Director in private wealth at First Republic Bank. Following the bank's collapse, he was aggressively recruited by several top firms, ultimately choosing his current institution for its global reputation and resources. Terance's story is a testament to resilience and excellence, serving as an inspiration to aspiring professionals.
