Meet Leon Phoenix — From Banker’s Desk To Entrepreneur’s Ally

I grew up in a small Italian neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York, where I watched my parents work multiple jobs only to be shut out by banks and institutions.

At 18, I swore I’d break that cycle. A scholarship took me to the University of Colorado Denver, and by 2000 I was a junior underwriter at Wells Fargo Financial. By 2007, I was managing credit teams at Bank of America and later leading fintech partnerships.

Leon Phoenix — From Brooklyn Streets to 20 Years in Banking and $50M+ in Funding Approvals, Now Fighting for Entrepreneursa

From the outside, I had “made it.” But behind the scenes, I saw how the game was rigged:

- The wealthy 1% had access to virtually unlimited funding.

- Everyday entrepreneurs were denied again and again — not because they weren’t capable, but because they didn’t know the rules.

After 20 years inside the system, I said enough is enough. I left the banks and built a team I call The Rogue Operators — ex-underwriters, credit analysts, and fintech execs who know exactly how to make banks say yes.

Together, we created The Capital Engine™ — the same funding formula the wealthy have always used, now built for entrepreneurs like you.
