What’s your origin story —where did you grow up, and what brought you to real estate?
From Edmonton - Coming from an extensive sales background in the corporate world, I decided to transition into real estate as it was something my family was involved in when I was younger. During a shift in covid and times of uncertainty, I decided to walk away from my day job and put my efforts into real estate.
What was your first job ever?
Paperboy. Used to deliver flyers around my community growing up.
What do you love most about being a Realtor (besides helping people)?
Seeing the creativity in real estate when touring properties. It's really neat to see what someone is able to accomplish in a property whether it's a home renovation for themselves or an investment project.
What’s something people are always surprised to learn about you?
N/A
How would your friends describe you in three words?
Confident, Reliable, and Ambitious
What’s your superpower when it comes to working with clients?
Patience and empathy. Clients see me more as a friend than a Realtor when working together.
Do you have any weird habits or routines you swear by (morning coffee ritual, lucky socks on closing days)?
None
What’s your go-to karaoke song or guilty pleasure TV show?
Seeing the creativity in real estate when touring properties. It's really neat to see what someone is able to accomplish in a property whether it's a home renovation for themselves or an investment project.
How do you like to make the home buying/selling process fun or less stressful?
It's all in the relationship with the clients. When I meet clients who are looking to buy or sell, I treat the process as if I myself am in their shoes. No sugar coating anything, just being honest and transparent.
What’s a memorable or funny moment you’ve had while showing homes?
One time I showed a property and the note on the door said "cats inside, beware". As I slowly opened the door, there must've been at least 5 cats inside the room.
What’s one piece of real estate advice you find yourself giving over and over?
Get pre-approved.
How do you celebrate with clients after a big win (like buying their first home)?
Depends on the client. I like to try and understand what my clients enjoy and treat them to something nice.
What are you passionate about outside of real estate?
Coaching soccer. I've recently gotten into this as I have a background in soccer and it's exciting to be a coach.
Do you have pets, a partner, or kids who make regular appearances in your life (and maybe on your Instagram)?
N/A
What’s your favorite room in your own home —and why?
My office. It's where I can sit down and focus on all things. When I want to get really productive whether it's real estate related or not, I'll be in my office putting a plan together to get it done.
What’s your go-to local coffee shop, park, or hangout spot?
