Fontine Da Luz
get in touch
Fontine Da Luz is a 22-year-old entrepreneur, commercial and investment real estate professional, and technology founder based in the San Francisco Bay Area. Her work sits at the intersection of real estate, private-market opportunities, strategic relationships, and artificial intelligence.
Through Prospera Advisory, Fontine works across the private-market ecosystem with developers, founders, operators, lenders, family office principals, venture capital and private equity firms, hedge funds, and other capital partners. Her role centers around identifying and evaluating opportunities, making strategic introductions, supporting capital readiness, creating accountability between parties, and helping move opportunities from conversation toward execution and closing.
She is also the founder of Kialae.ai, a voice-enabled AI operating platform being developed for real estate professionals. Kialae is designed to consolidate fragmented workflows across listing preparation, agreements, disclosures, offers, showings, marketing, client communication, transaction timelines, follow-ups, vendor coordination, and communication with lenders, escrow, title, and other parties. Through voice and natural-language interaction, the vision is to provide an intelligent operating layer that understands what is happening, identifies what needs attention next, and helps move transactions forward more efficiently.
Fontine is also involved with Infinite Exchange, a relationship-driven platform connecting entrepreneurs, investors, and business leaders through genuine relationships, shared resources, and long-term opportunities.
Her path to entrepreneurship was unconventional. After experiencing juvenile hall, addiction, and significant adversity at a young age, Fontine entered the workforce early and learned how discipline, resourcefulness, relationships, and access to the right guidance can change the trajectory of someone’s life. She began working in real estate at 17 and earned her California real estate license at 18.
Mentorship has also played an important role in her journey. Throughout her career, Fontine has learned from mentors who challenged her thinking, exposed her to new opportunities, and helped her understand business and wealth creation at a young age.
Her larger mission is to help the next generation—particularly young women—better understand ownership, financial literacy, entrepreneurship, technology, and generational wealth. She believes trust comes before transactions, relationships create long-term value, mentorship accelerates growth, and technology has dramatically reduced the distance between an idea and execution.
