Silvia Vasquez-Lavado is a Peruvian-American explorer, mountaineer and social entrepreneur. In 2018, she completed the Seven Summits, the tallest mountain on each continent, from both the Messner and Bass lists, culminating in Mt Everest. Silvia's life has been an epic personal journey, through childhood sexual abuse, alcoholism, and a fast paced corporate and personal life in the Silicon Valley tech world, to the discovery of mountains that was to be both her saviour, and her healing.
