Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work, and the only way to do great work is to love what you do.” –Steve Jobs

At 20 years old and fresh out of college I just needed money and it didn’t matter where it came from. I applied everywhere and Chipotle Mexican Grill was the first to offer me a crew position at $8.50/hr. 3 weeks in I was offered a kitchen manager position. Fast forward 3 years and I was a General Manager that had developed over 20 managers and coordinated training for over 10 new locations. I proved to myself that I could accomplish anything because I was willing to listen and always learned from my mistakes. Unfortunately the restaurant industry is not what I am passionate about. Real estate is. About a year ago I became very interested in the real estate world, so I began to read any and every book that has to do with real estate, personal development, finance, and SALES. Now I am here at BP to network, continue to learn and begin my journey with real estate.

I recently acquired my first property and I am ready to begin my journey. I look forward creating great relationships with you all here on BP. Thanks!
