About Solvista Partners
Anna Ohanian
Founder & Principal
Anna grew up between New Jersey and Florida in an immigrant household that valued hard work, resilience, and the courage to bet on oneself.
Entrepreneurship runs deep in her family. Her grandfather opened a jewelry store in Manhattan after immigrating in the 1970s. When he passed unexpectedly, Anna’s father took over and later started a youth sports business in Florida, now run by him and Anna’s brother.
Professionally, Anna built a successful career in investment banking as a member of Citi’s Southeast Public Finance division. Over her tenure, she worked on 80+ financings totaling $15 billion, funding critical infrastructure projects across Florida and the greater Southeast region.
Despite her achievements in banking, entrepreneurship has remained her true calling. Today, she is on a mission to find, acquire, and grow one great business.
She and her brother are first-generation college graduates. Anna holds a BSBA in Finance from the University of Florida and an MBA from Harvard Business School.
