Steffi Berg Baker, founder of HNWWI, is a pioneering figure in the family office sector, dedicated to delivering practical and tactical financial education. Growing up as the eldest of three girls in a northern suburb of Milwaukee, Steffi experienced the unique challenges of being biracial in the 70s and 80s. Her mother is white, and her father is Black, a background that enriched her perspective and resilience. Her passion for travel and exploration led her to Pomona College in California after graduating from the University School of Milwaukee. Her journey then took her across the US before she pursued an MBA at Edinburgh Business School’s London campus in 2004.
Entering the family office sector in 2008, Steffi identified a significant gap in financial education, especially for women. In 2020, she founded HNWWI to address these needs, focusing on helping individuals create and manage fulfilling, wealthy lives. Steffi’s biracial heritage has shaped her into a symbol of harmony and unity, and she empathizes deeply with those who feel like outliers. She is committed to helping her clients achieve love, leverage, and legacy in their lives.
