Business Breakfast: Lee A. Korn

QC Business Breakfast with QC Alumnus, Lee A. Korn!

It was an inspiring morning at our School of Business breakfast on Thursday! We were honored to welcome back Lee Korn, CPWA®, Queens College alum and accounting graduate, who shared his remarkable journey from student to leader in wealth management.

Lee’s path wasn’t always straightforward, but his perseverance led him to co-found Opal Wealth Advisors in 2019 alongside partners Jesse Giordano and Joe Filosa. Before that, he co-founded The 360 Group at Morgan Stanley, where he served as both Financial Advisor and Family Wealth Director—earning recognition from Barron’s as one of the Top 1,200 Financial Advisors in the United States. Our students gained many invaluable insights from Lee’s talk!
