The transparent mother of three girls recently had the honor of ringing the bell at the New York Stock Exchange and was honored by 100 Black Women as a real estate trailblazer.

By the age of 34, she’d flipped more than 42 personal properties, 67 with partners included. Later, her love of real estate lead the NYU & Temple graduate to a career as a top real estate broker and wealth educator.
