Have you ever experienced the kind of energy that makes you feel like you can conquer anything—just because of the people around you? That’s the magic of a great team.

A true team isn’t just a bunch of people working in the same office or sharing a logo. It’s a group with shared goals, mutual respect, and a deep belief in each other’s potential.

What sets a real team apart is the way we show up—not just for the work, but for each other. We celebrate each other’s wins like they’re our own. We step in when someone’s struggling. We grow together, challenge each other, and raise the bar because we want everyone to win.

It’s not about being perfect—it’s about being present. Listening, learning, leaning in. When you’re on a team like that, work becomes something more than just a job. It becomes a place where you’re seen, heard, and valued. And that kind of support? It’s fuel for momentum.

That momentum is what helps move you forward. In life, in relationships, and in business.

Almost 6 years ago I was in a dark place. I had stepped away from my job that was draining me and made me feel so inadequate. While looking for a new opportunity Covid hit our world and most businesses were shutting down, not looking to hire. I was desperate for purpose and something that I could call a career. I had a college degree, had experience in multiple areas of work, but nothing out there felt like anything but a day-to-day with no end in sight. Then I found it.

Elite Realty Group was looking for an Executive Assistant. I had no training in real estate other than working for a property management company and taking real estate law course while getting my degree. I was not licensed. I was not trained in their CRM or how they do business. I was nervous, but wanted to know more. 

Fast forward almost 5 years later and here I am. Helping an amazing team of agents who are striving for their best. Yes, for their best and not to be the best. I have helped grow the team, brought in 3 deals, and am walking along with a team leader who gave me my shot in this career. It is not always pretty, it's not always easy, but it's what I am meant to do. I was meant for this team and to be by their side through their journey.

 Are you like me and seeking that kind of environment? Reach out - we want agents who need a community that feels different. We are different. We are a family.
