Nobody taught us money. So we made a squirrel do it.

Finnley started with a simple idea: if students can raise a pet in a game, they can learn to budget, save and spot a scam the same way. We're building it with teachers and students, and we're part of Techstars University Founder Catalyst 2026.

Hi, I'm Celine

I'm an engineering student at USC building the money game I wish I'd had in school. Finnley started as a high school project, and our first classroom pilot was at my old school in Singapore.
