Early life and family

During her time at the university, a TV producer discovered Gerardi, and she won a starring role on a popular soap opera series[which?] that was broadcast internationally. Gerardi has worked in more than 30 countries, including Russia, Germany, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, and Puerto Rico. A non-profit charity foundation in Barlovento, Venezuela, the Sheyene School, is named after her.[2][3]

Gerardi has won two Emmy Awards, the 2 de Oro award, the Meridiano de Oro award and the Imagen Awards, and was given the key to the city of Barlovento.[4][5][6]

Business career

Later in her career, Gerardi founded the Sheyene Gerardi Network (SGN), a platform for entertainment content raising awareness of the space revolution.[citation needed] On March 9, 2020, Gerardi began hosting a cable television show entitled To the Moon and Back with Sheyene Gerardi, in which she presents cutting-edge technological developments.[citation needed] She also served as executive producer for the series.

In 2017, Gerardi established a robotics company, Sheyene Technology, to commercialize her robotics product lines of autonomous mining vehicles and self-driving cars for industrial and commercial uses. It also has product research and development operations in Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAV) and for deployment on in situ planetary and lunar missions. The company is headquartered in Silicon Valley, California, with offices in Shanghai and Barcelona,[7] and its clients include government agencies in the United States.[8][9][10] Sheyene Technology is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Sheyene Gerardi Family Office.

Personal life

In 2006, Gerardi's mother and father were killed in an automobile accident, leaving her with no living family. A year later, she was diagnosed with advanced lymphoma stage IV, a very rare type of cancer with only 60 cases reported worldwide with no survivors.[5][12][3] The cancer spread throughout 85% of her body and doctors gave her three months to live.[13] During her chemotherapy treatments, Gerardi worked in two films in Mexico, including La virgen de la caridad del cobre.[14] Six months later, in Santa Juanita de Los Lagos,[15] Gerardi began three years of chemotherapy, during which she suffered no hair loss.[16]

Gerardi grew up as an avid fan of racing; her father, Edgar García, was a renowned explorer and a racing car driver in Venezuela. In 1974, García led an expedition to Mount Roraima, resulting in the discovery of 11 new scorpion species, one of which, Neochactas garciai, was named in his honor for his contribution to the understanding of scorpion species.[17][18] Gerardi is a certified yacht captain and owns a yacht named after her in Florida.[citation needed]
