ANNOUNCEMENT COMING SOON!!

Excuse me while I straighten my crown and get back to work ✨

This past year and a half have been absolutely insane and unbelievably hard for everyone. So many people have lost their jobs, their way of life as we know it and way too many have lost their lives due to this pandemic. It’s doubtful anyone reading this has been untouched by this pandemic and although we have not experienced the kind of loss many others have, my family wasn’t unscathed.

But they say with every rain comes a rainbow. At a point in my life where I was struggling to just be good enough and get through it a bit longer, fate stepped in and took that burden away. I lost my job. I. was. crushed. I’ve never lost a job before and found myself in the unknown territory of anger, self doubt and disappointment. The big box Real Estate firm that I was employed by cut 7% of its staff and furloughed hundreds of agents due to decreased housing demand amid the COVID-19 crisis.

Several people close to me said that maybe it was a “blessing in disguise”. All I could think of is “Are you kidding, how can being let go because of a pandemic be a blessing? I had worked so very hard to jump through every hoop and metric required of me at my job, finally got a small promotion and with several homes in escrow at the time, I was mere weeks away from another big company milestone. How could it not be enough?

After letting myself sink into my new reality for a few days it was time to rally. With the help and support of my then boyfriend (now fiance) and family, I made the decision to fulfill a longtime goal of mine and make a leap of faith in my career. I have been hard at work on this for over a year now and cannot wait to share my news with you soon!
