Instructor
I started my real estate career in 2006 when the market was starting to decline quickly. In 2007, my first full year in the business, I won the "Rookie of the Year" award. 2008-2009 were rough and humbling years for me. I did more sales than the average agent, but not near my capabilities or desires. In 2010 I had a "rebirthing" of my business. I got truly committed. I worked with multiple real estate coaches over the last 5 years. From testing their strategies and developing my own, I have created a straightforward way to grow your business exponentially. I am living proof. In 2012 I won a Centurion Award (a Century 21 Award that means you have done a high production level, around $250,000 GCI). In 2013, I won the Double Centurion (which means I did over twice that much production). And in 2014, I won the Double Centurion again. I also received my broker's license in 2013, enabling me to go off independently and giving me additional knowledge. I stayed with Century 21, however, through the end of 2014. In 2015, I acquired my Principal Broker's License in Oregon. I expanded my profession to include coaching real estate agents. In 2022, I received my Digital Marketing Certificate from the University of Vermont, and in 2023, I updated my courses to include training on how to create a Digital Marketing Plan for a real estate business. Watch my first video, where I walk you through my early production and income growth. Watch my second video to learn about the updates. Then... get busy and do it yourself!
