Submission AbstractI proudly earned my real estate license while still in high school, driven by a deep passion for the industry and inspired by my family’s legacy. As a second-generation Realtor, I embraced the opportunity to follow in the footsteps of those who shaped my understanding of hard work, dedication, and the importance of helping others find their perfect home.
I am proud to be a Graduate, REALTOR® Institute (GRI) alumnus, which has provided me with advanced knowledge and tools to excel in the real estate industry. Currently, I am further enhancing my expertise by pursuing the Certified Residential Specialist (CRS) designation, which is widely recognized as the pinnacle of professional achievement in residential real estate. These opportunities for growth allow me to continuously refine my skills and provide exceptional service to my clients.
Growing up as the child of a single mother who was also a dedicated Realtor, I witnessed firsthand the resilience, hard work, and meaningful impact this career has on people’s lives. Her example inspired me to follow in her footsteps and continue the legacy of helping others achieve their dreams of homeownership. Obtaining my real estate license felt like a natural step, driven by my passion for guiding clients through one of life’s most significant decisions—finding their perfect home. Beginning my career at an early age allowed me to develop both personally and professionally, strengthening my love for real estate and deepening my commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of others.
