And so, I trusted that feeling.

I bet on the intangible—and joined eXp Realty.

At 21, that was a bold move. Risky to some. Strategic to me.

When I really looked at eXp Realty’s business model—the training, tools, commission structure, stock awards, revenue share, global referral network, and tech-first infrastructure—respectfully… my local brokerage didn’t stand a chance.

Above all, I just knew I needed to find a modern way of doing real estate if I wanted to last in this industry—and eXp Realty aligned perfectly.

And then… the world shut down.

Hello worldwide “panini press” (aka the COVID-19 pandemic).

No open houses. No traditional networking. No face-to-face momentum.

So I did what felt natural.

I went online.

I started creating YouTube videos for buyers and sellers. And as a new—and let’s be honest, broke—agent, I had to build everything myself—my branding, my marketing, and my systems.

At the time, I thought I was attracting real estate clients.

But it turns out… I was also attracting real estate agents.

Other agents started reaching out—asking how I was building my brand, how I was using Canva, how I was creating systems that made everything feel cohesive and consistent.

What started as survival during a pandemic turned into something bigger.

I realized I wasn’t just building a real estate business.

I was building a blueprint.

Today, I still hold my license with eXp Realty—but my focus has evolved.

Now, I create content only for real estate agents—and partner with them across Canada and the U.S. at eXp Realty—helping them build modern, scalable real estate businesses.

Because looking back… I was never just building a career.

I was creating alignment.
