We’re excited to introduce you to Vanessa Edet! She joins the Yardi team as a sales executive in our London office, supporting small to medium sized commercial real estate companies with Yardi Breeze Premier. We asked Vanessa a range of questions so you could get to know her more.
What is your role at Yardi?
I’m a Sales Executive at Yardi – I joined the company in November 2020 and have enjoyed working with such a wonderful team!
If you could jump on a plane right now, where would you go?
Peru- I’ve always wanted to travel solo around South America. The history, food, music, people, culture; it’s magnificent!
If you could have a superpower, what would it be?
Super-fast intelligence. Knowledge is power and I want to know everything!
What is your favourite thing to eat?
Cake- Desserts are my weakness.
You can invite three celebrities for dinner, who would they be and why?
Michelle Obama – A brilliant woman who graduated, first from Princeton University and then Harvard University. Who continued to become a lawyer, author and philanthropist and raise two wonderful children. She is an inspiration, and I’d love to persuade her to mentor me! Tom Jones- An icon with a rock and role past, who now appears to have aged into a charming, endearing man. I think he would bring humour, wisdom and a few little secrets to the dinner. Amal Clooney- Not only married to one of the most desired men (George Clooney) but is also an author and barrister in international law and human rights; she is a force in her own right. I think she would be a wonderful addition to my dinner party!
If you could only listen to one album and watch one film forever, what would they be?
I love jazz and soul music so would probably be an album by Jill Scott – The Light of the Sun. Choosing just one movie is hard, as there are so many favourites. But I will choose a film I have always loved- The Great Debaters: it’s a true story showing humour, drama and love.
What’s your favourite mobile app?
Audible – I love reading and audible means I can now listen to books while I exercise and run errands.
