Licensed investment adviser, operator, and CEO.

Hydra Wealth Advisors
An independent, unaffiliated fiduciary RIA. No parent company and no product shelf. The work is macro-driven and built around risk: protecting capital against monetary debasement, diversifying into asset classes most advisers will not touch, and explaining the reasoning so a client can follow it.

Hydra Capital Group
private capital, scaling and selling businesses. I have sat on both sides of that table.

Manufacturing
Shareholder, Co-founder, and CEO of WaxMelters.com, a thermal processing equipment manufacturer in the aerospace and defense supply chain, building machines since 1999.  When I write about supply chains, lead times, and input costs, it is because I am the one ordering the steel.

Research and writing
I publish daily on X as @RosannaInvests, mostly macro, monetary policy, and the industrial layer underneath the AI buildout. My framework is Austrian and monetarist. Every claim traces back to a filing, an earnings call, or a named source, and every bullish piece carries a paragraph on what could go wrong.

The RO Show
134 episodes with economists, traders, and analysts who move markets rather than talk about them. New episodes returning soon.

Background
I co-founded my first business in commercial real estate development, Xanadu Properties, LLC, in 1999.  In the early 2000s I diversified into the health club industry.  In 2005, I co-founded Prestia Group, LLC, a commercial real estate brokerage in Seattle, with my husband Frank D. Prestia.
MBA, advanced academic work in economics, business, and decision
information sciences.
Austrian and monetarist framework.
