Kingsley Choi

Wealth Advisor
Education and Credentials

With over a decade of experience in client services across the creative and financial sectors, Kingsley excels in understanding client needs and leading teams to success. Prior to joining SteelPeak Wealth, Kingsley worked as a Vice President Financial Consultant at Charles Schwab serving clients since 2014 in both Orange County and Los Angeles County.

Over the years, Kingsley has followed the belief that: “Your clients are your best teachers in life.”

Every person has some interesting life lessons to teach. By listening deeply and having meaningful conversations as the trusted advisor, Kingsley enjoys learning about the unique situations of his clients and working closely with them to solve the complexities in their financial pictures.

Prior to working in Wealth Management, Kingsley also spent many years working in the Advertising industry to help develop brand messaging for multiple Fortune 500 companies including Toyota Motorsports and AT&T. As a result, he understands the value of good communication and is a big proponent of helping clients to navigate complex topics by simplifying them to everyday understandable terms.

Kingsley is married to his wife Carmen and outside his professional endeavors he enjoys traveling the world to learn about different cultures and perspectives. Back at home, Kingsley also pursues a hobby in coffee roasting, so ask him anything about coffee or better yet, grab a coffee with him to learn something interesting!
