Accomplishments

I left Otis Art and Design. I began a small produce company in San Diego. I was at the time one of the semester from graduation. However, the business I started took off with flying colors.


I started in real estate at the worst possible time in California history.


I have returned to what I know best, produce. I currently would like to move back into the customer service side of things.

Certification

I have my real estate license DRE# 02080793. I have also passed the California insurance exam. I have never used it as I’m more concerned with clients services.
