Renna Badolato is currently an Operations Specialist at American Strategic Advisors and a senior at Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, Connecticut, where she is majoring in Finance and a part of Honors program studies. Renna has always been passionate about taking on adventurous and challenging roles, become as involved as possible with her surrounding community, including joining a philanthropy based sorority (Delta Delta Delta) and participation in the Honors Program College at SHU. Through her curiosity in wealth management, Renna has developed a strong passion for financial literacy and encouraging others, especially college students, to seek guidance on crafting personal financial plans, budget sheets, and investment portfolios. 

Renna's goal is to become a financial advisor and to earn her CFP® certification and other industry credentials, starting in Fall 2025, her senior year, under American Strategic Advisors and mentored by Chris Aguele. Her decision to pursue a career in finance stems from a deep curiosity she developed in childhood while growing up in a working-class family, and witnessing first-hand the struggles of financial management.

When she’s not working Renna can be found cooking traditional Italian meals with her family, enjoying music at a concert, or exploring nature in the outdoors. Renna believes in living life to the fullest, and that those who embody service above self are the most reputable!
