Donald A. Wong Jr. is a father, partner, relative, entrepreneur, and community member. DWJ is Equity. Since the mid-80s, Mr. Wong has split time between the west and east coasts. Born in Seattle and spending a few childhood years in Los Angeles before moving to Fairfax, VA, for grade school, Mr. Wong had been exposed to the advantages of living on both coasts. In 1995, Don moved to Las Vegas, NV, where, as an instinctual entrepreneur, he fell in love with the land and opportunities Las Vegas bolstered. 

Having an interest in sports and extracurricular activities, Don was motivated to migrate back east for college, finishing a double major from The University of Maryland in Communications and Criminal Justice in 2007. During his final semester, sold on freedom, independence, and uncapped income potential, Mr. Wong studied for his insurance and securities licenses to begin his saga within the professional services industry. 

In 2008, he started his corporation, DWJ Holdings. Mr. Wong gained much of his experience in the field, navigating the terrain as a business owner. In 2013, Mr. Wong sold his captive insurance agency and decided to go independent, creating Cosmopolitan Insurance Group. In 2014, Mr. Wong was recruited by Lincoln Financial to help raise awareness around Financial Literacy. In 2016, Don founded Avanti Realty Group, a lifestyle real estate brokerage. And currently, Don is in the process of founding the first black-owned investment advisory firm in Las Vegas, DNA Financial. Most recently, Don has carved a niche for professional services management, leveraging over thirteen years of experience within real estate, insurance, and finance to help start-ups, entertainers, athletes, and millennials solve problems within the arena of professional services.

Don is extremely excited to be involved with Equity Inc., as the company's mission directly aligns with Mr. Wong’s life mission. “Giving people financial literacy and an opportunity for self-determination means giving them hope” (J. H. Bryant). Equity Inc. has created a platform that allows community members to leverage a shared economy while simultaneously creating generational wealth in real estate. DWJ is committed to the uplifting of black and brown communities by promoting the fundamentals of financial literacy, and this will continue to be our focus and life work! No equity, no peace!
