The Ortiz World Wealth Team

Colorado-born and California-grown, David Ortiz is no stranger to the scenic views of the west. Being one of five siblings in the family, Ortiz had nothing short of a lively upbringing in Torrance. Today, he remains in California with Gloria, his wife of 35 years, and works closely with his two grown children, Gabriel and Elias, at his independent financial firm. When he’s not putting in hours at the office, Ortiz likes to stay challenged on the turfs with a few competitive rounds of golf or by casting a line for some deep sea sportfishing. His athletic roots stem from grade school, which later inspired him to coach high school football at Calvary Chapel High School in Downey, CA. And while his schedule remains busy, Ortiz stays focused on his faith by volunteering time to his local church every week.

Born in Montebello, CA and a graduate from Whitter High School, Greg Wilson stayed close to his California roots through college and beyond. In 1999, he married his loving wife Juliana and, together, they grew their family to a size of six. Raising two older boys, Nathaniel and John, and a younger set of twins, Chloe and Elise, Wilson kept his hands full with homeschooling his children for nearly 10 years. He stays active in the community by serving as a junior high pastor at Calvary Chapel and as a youth sports coach in the Whittier Area Community Church. But Wilson also enjoys staying athletic year-round, with indoor futsal every fall and basketball in the spring. His favorite current pastime is enhancing his artistic skills by learning guitar with his oldest son, Nathaniel.

Born in Montebello, California and raised in Whittier, Steve’s upbringing was nothing short of adventurous. Raised in a household that holds a passion for the outdoors, Steve grew up with a love for fishing, camping, hunting and hiking. His outdoor hobbies later inspired him to go backpacking and even lead him overseas for short-term mission trips in Russia and Mexico. Steve remained close to home through college and beyond. During his time at Whittier College, he met his wonderful wife Susan and, together, they raised four children and three grandchildren. Aside from family, outdoors and travel, Steve is devoted to his faith. He served as a Biblical Counselor for 27 years and as a children’s ministry for six; he also trained other counselors for crusades and outreaches.

Laurel’s casual bio will be coming soon.

Born in Santa Paula and raised in Oxnard through childhood, Susan later settled down in Whittier to maintain her California lifestyle. Susan grew up with four sisters and several dogs, setting a goal to keep a big family for generations to come. She now has three grandchildren and even has hopes of adding a West Highland White Terrier to the mix. Known to be a travel enthusiast, Susan is a frequent flyer traveling to countries including Morocco, Scotland, England, Russia and Philippines for mission trips over the years. She has a passion for discipling and mentoring women, and later founded a successful women’s ministry at a So Cal church.

Growing up in Southern California, Gabriel Ortiz pursued a variety of clubs, sports and hobbies through his educational career. From acting and filmmaking to Muay Thai and Jiu Jitsu, Ortiz is known as the man of many talents in his family. His close bond with his mom, dad and brother keep him driven in his professional career, but on the weekends, you can find him exploring the great outdoors either fishing or camping. Ortiz is passionate about charities including Restaurant Employee Relief Fund and Salvation Army, and his favorite cause is the Hispanic Alliance for Career Advancement.

Just like the rest of the Ortiz family, Elias is a California local raised in Whittier. Growing up just outside of Los Angeles with his mom, dad and brother, Ortiz grew a special love for creativity through reading, writing and playing music. Aside from his creative roots, Ortiz enjoys staying active with a few rounds of boxing or a game of rugby during his down time.

A California native, Jim Clawson is a longstanding resident of Pasadena, CA, where he spent his childhood and graduated high school. Today, he’s a devout husband of 22 years and a loving father to six children and 14 grandchildren. When he’s not spending time with family, you can catch him nose-deep in genealogy studies or out swinging a golf club on the courses. Clawson also holds a passion for travel and serving those in need, and later set out to do just that through a voluntary missionary service across Australia. Those closest to him would best describe him as a full-time husband, father and grandfather, and a part-time cook, traveler and golfer.
