How long have you been a Boston Business Women’s Member?
Less than a year.
Were you born and raised in Boston? If not, what brought you here?
Born and raised in a town just south of the city but college brought me closer.
Tell us more about your job or company and what led you to your career?
I, with my business partner, help buyers and sellers in the city...with a focus on Cambridge. We specialize in helping home owners take the next step to downsize. I started from the bottom up in this industry...answering phones at front desk, administrative duties, to assistant positions before jumping in with both feet being an agent.
What would your clients say about you and your company?
Here is a testimonial that speaks true to how we conduct our business: ``From the first meeting Jan and Kayla inspired confidence, and they did not see very much of me during the process because I trusted them to know what to do and how to do it, while I turned my attention to other things my stepmother needed. I see now that my trust was very well placed.``
What is the best advice you’ve ever received?
Find someone who is reaching the success you want to reach and you share values with, and do what they are doing.
What’s your favorite book?
For fun: Into the Wild by Jon Krauker. For profession: The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy
What’s your secret weapon?
Compass, the real estate brokerage that I work for, is equipped with all the tech tools to best serve our buyers and sellers. There is a market app where at any given point I can pull it open and check the market stats for whichever neighborhood or town I need.
What advice would you give to your younger self?
Learn to confidently talk about yourself because, you're going to be doing lots of marketing and selling of who you are.
What is something that not many people know about you?
Gosh, I don't know. I'm really an open book... most people know just about everything about me.
