As a kid I remember my mom working as the administrative assistant in a real estate office in Albany, Georgia. Hearing her talk about the clients searching for their dream home and the work the agents did to find it for them was exciting. At the time I never imaged I would be one of those agents assisting clients in fullfilling their dream.
It was almost 20 years later that my interest in real estate led me to take the real estate course. I really enjoyed the course and the instructor and studied hard for the state and national exam. The final test was much easier than I expected and I passed easily. However, like many others, I took the course, but did nothing with it. I was in the military at the time and was reassigned from Fort Rucker, Alabama to Fort Wainwright, Alaska. I let the license expire, never even earning a referral fee.
Fast forward 16 years (not that you have to fast forward - time goes much faster you as you get older!) and I am a licensed real estate agent again. My years of experience in the military and corporate America provided me with a vast background of knowledge and experiences. Having served as a training specialist, human resources director, operations manager and marketing coordinator I see where all these skills will benefit myself, my clients and customers in the business of real estate.
This is the beginning. In my other careers many things could hinder or enhance your growth. In this business the only limiting factor is ME. I eagerly accept and look forward to the challenge.
Merry Christmas!
