Hey BP community! After years of quietly soaking up the knowledge here, I’m finally stepping out of the shadows to introduce myself and hopefully connect with others on a similar path.

I started investing in real estate in 2019, focusing primarily on Washington, DC and Virginia (where I lived at the time). Over the last few years, I’ve learned a ton through buying, managing, and navigating those markets. Lately though, my focus has shifted back home—Massachusetts and Rhode Island, where I grew up and where my heart is.

A bit more about me:

- I work in big tech and am planning my exit in the next few years to focus more on real estate and startups.
- Outside of work and real estate, I love spending time with family and friends, volunteering on farms (I'm a sucker for baby animals and weirdly into manual labor), and being intentional about how I spend my time and energy.
- I'm building a life that’s rich in freedom, peace of mind, and community—who wouldn’t want that?

Looking ahead, I’m hoping to:

- Buy 2-3 multifamily properties in MA or RI over the next year
- Connect with local investors, agents, and operators who know the ins and outs of these markets
- Network with great property managers (I have both worked with property managers and self-managed)
- Continue learning and contributing more here on BiggerPockets

If you’re investing in MA or RI, thinking about leaving a W2 in tech, or just want to trade notes on building a life that’s more abundant—I’d love to connect.
