    ABOUT STEFFANY BOLDRINI


    Steffany was born and raised on a small ranch in Brazil called Monte Carlo Ranch. At 18, she moved to Silicon Valley with her family, and it was there that she learned she could become anything she set her mind to. It is also where she was introduced to technology and its power to make an impact in the world. Through her personal experience as an angel investor and the experiences of her circle of friends in Silicon Valley, she realized that she much preferred investing in real estate instead of startups. This was primarily for the security an asset-based investment provided versus potentially losing 100% of her investment in an angel investing scenario, in addition to the dilution of her equity as the startups in which she invested grew. For the past four years, she has focused on her career in commercial real estate investing, mainly investing in the self-storage asset class.
