A DREAMER at heart, Anita grew up in Switzerland and decided at a young age that she wanted to pursue tennis and get a full athletic scholarship at a top US university. But that wasn’t easy. Growing up Anita struggled with being bullied due to her height, poor school grades and had to learn how to stick up for herself. By believing in her own capabilities, she was able to attend Purdue University on a full scholarship, earning both MVP and Player of the Year honors. Following her graduation, she volunteered as an English teacher in the Rio de Janeiro slums for a time before relocating to her dream city San Francisco. Homeless and struggling for many months, she then landed an entry-level sales job that would sponsor her work visa. At that point, she set a goal for herself: She would become the company’s top account manager within two years. She met that goal within one year, earning a six-figure salary just twelve months after she had only $4.36 left to her name.

Testimonials

Anita has a very simple and genuine way to communicate with young students. Her stories were very engaging and she kept the students very interested throughout the whole presentation. I strongly recommend her talks to motivate young teenagers and help them be aware of how privileged they are.
José Azcue (Portugal) Headmaster PaRK International School

Typically when we have speakers, I always see some students talking or disengaged, but when Anita came it was different. All students were listening, attentive and extremely engaged. She has an incredible way to connect with students.
