Episode 54: Bianca D’Alessio

Pretty Powerful Podcast with Angela Gennari

There are real estate brokers, and then there is Bianca D'Alessio... an exceptionally brilliant, strategy driven, world-traveling, public-speaking, reality TV star, social media maven, elite Real Estate Broker who manages a $10B portfolio for Nest Seekers International that primarily focuses on the insanely competitive NYC and Hamptons luxury markets. If you think that is a mouthful, you should try keeping up with her for a day. Bianca is easily one of the most impressive women I've met, and she says that while she may not be the smartest person in the room, no one will outwork her. I disagree with her not being the smartest person in the room, by the way.

Prior to her career in Real Estate, Bianca was traveling around the world and later transitioned into a non-profit position, focusing on leadership development, communication, and behavioral training workshops for women across the United States. As an avid volunteer and advocate for women, Bianca regularly facilitates workshops in New York on topics such as opening a bank account, establishing and using lines of credit responsibly, household budgeting and navigating the financial aid process. She also serves on the Alumni Advisory Board for her alma mater, Babson College in Boston. During her time at Babson, Bianca packed a suitcase and moved to Auckland, New Zealand for six months where she enrolled at the Business School at the University of Auckland. She then spent the next three months living in China, Russia and India studying the entrepreneurial ecosystems and political spheres that affect business in the emerging markets. Bianca eventually went on to do consulting work for a technology start-up firm in Tel Aviv, Israel. Through her time abroad, she gained incredible insight on different communication styles, negotiation tactics and cultural norms. Bianca prides herself on being a strong listener, lifelong learner and loyal advocate for her clients.
