I left the family restaurant business to pursue real estate full time, which was two months after getting married in 2020, which was also the start of the pandemic.    

What are you proud of in your career?     
I’ve done over $25 million in volume in the past five years, with the first two years being part time without a single lead, and with the first three years of my career, no advertising.

What is important to you right now?
My wife, Oala, and my daughter, Amelia

$20 million in volume in 2024

Tell us about a challenge you have overcome — personal or professional!
Getting married at 23. At that age, it’s not an easy task, and there are a lot of bumps in the road. My wife and I were able to not stress about the small things and look at the bigger picture.

Tell us one thing you can’t live without (family & phones dont count)! 
The gym, because it keeps me mentally focused.

Being able to talk to anyone in a room

When you were younger (say, 12-15 years old), what did you dream of becoming?
Obviously, to become a real estate agent. Helping others has always been a passion of mine, and I thought this was the best way to do so!
