I started working for my mom at her real estate office about 6 years ago to help out. I was totally convinced at that time that I had no desire what so ever to go into the real estate business. I mean she was ALWAYS working and I just didn't understand what drew her to it. Eventually as business started to pick up I had the opportunity to get my real estate license. At that time I still planned on just helping out with the escrow files and eventually moving on to do something else. That was until my first closing.....

I can't even explain the satisfaction I felt from being able to help my clients (first time home buyers) purchase the home of their dreams. The looks on their faces when they got THEIR keys was priceless.

At that point I realized that this was it, this was the reason my mom worked such long hours and went above and beyond the call of duty....this was the reward!! Seeing and feeling the gratitude from a job well done was enough to clench the deal for me.

Since that time I have continued in real estate and have never looked back. I continue to learn something new everyday and will forever be grateful to my mom.......who made me get a summer job that just happened to turn into a career that I love.
