Aside from guiding her clients in the purchase and/or sale of the largest asset they may ever hold (a piece of real estate) Silvia is passionate about empowering women (and men!) to invest in female led companies that focus on FemTech or other underserved markets (ie LatinX and other BiPOC communities) - for both positive impact and strong ROI. Silvia is an investor in numerous Portfolia VC Funds, where limited partners can sit in on the pitch calls, participate in the due diligence, ask questions and vote alongside the lead investors. She finds it exciting to be exposed to cutting edge technologies that brilliant women (and some men) are bringing to market to make this a better place to live.She has a background in finance and strategic planning, having worked at Lucasfilm, Disney, Fox TV and Goldman Sachs before launching her real estate and investment career. She holds an MBA from UCLA, and a BA from UC Berkeley.Silvia is an avid traveller, biohacker, loves kayaking and has ventured to 52 countries and counting! She was also on the cutting edge of being a childless cat lady trend - before it became popular. 💃🏻🐈
