About

I moved to Colorado Springs to be close to my mom and reinvented myself as a documentation writer before moving into the training department, where it was love at first sight! The owner's motto was "Change Is a Constant State," and those words were so true. I thought I would work there forever, but forever lasted right until the owner sold the company and I was laid off.

At that point I had just closed on a new home, had a toddler under my arm and a wonderful husband but very few job prospects. I felt betrayed, and I decided, after about a three-week pity party, that I would never let anyone control my employment and financial future again.

Remembering how much I enjoyed the process of buying my new house, I decided to get my real estate license. Sure, I didn't know much about contracts and the process of real estate except my own experience, but in fewer than two years I was teaching pre-licensing education and closing business.

I’m an educator at heart

What I saw was new agent after new agent struggling to get their feet under them. Anywhere from 80% to 90% of new licensees were getting out of the business within their first three to five years. Their fear and uncertainty about what they needed to do to be successful became so powerful they drowned in it. Most didn’t know how to treat their business like a business, so they never even saw the end coming until it was too late.

I believe that if I could teach new agents how to set the foundations of a successful business, then bridge their knowledge gaps while also setting proper expectations, I could change those statistics. At the same time, I could ensure that my industry was filled with amazing agents who would properly help people and earn the rewards from doing so.
