A Registered Investment Advisor in the state of California, Vanessa Summers has a unique perspective on young women and finance. During her years as a model, she had little understanding of such concepts as the "time value" of money. Her perspective began to change when, at 23, she became a stockbroker and later, head of sales at a women's equity fund. Now, as founder of the nonprofit Sutra Foundation, she seeks to enlighten young women through financial education.
