Prestige. Success. Branding. These are some of the reasons real estate agents are known for their cars. Whether it be a luxury car, sports car, classic car, or an SUV, top producing agents in the OKC love their cars, and the one thing they all have in common? They are FUN to drive!

Tell us about you and your background.
Born and raised in Tulsa, OK, I attended TCC and OSU Tulsa, pursuing a bachelor's degree in marketing, while building a career in multifamily property management. In 2019, my employer at the time transferred me to OKC, and in 2020, I bought my first home and got my real estate license. In 2021, I took the leap and sold my first house! I love anything sports or comedy related. Back home, I loved going to open mics and doing stand-up comedy, and now, I'm training for my first half-marathon!

Who or what led you to a career in real estate?
I worked for my previous employer for nearly 10 years when the pandemic started and had never envisioned myself as my own boss before that. But after the pandemic, and seeing how some companies chose profits over people, it changed how I felt about dedicating my life to 'corporate'. I wanted freedom, I wanted to help people, and I wanted to improve the lives of the people around me. Real estate allows me to do that on my terms.

What sparked your interest in cars? If applicable, tell us the story behind the vehicle you are featuring.

It was love at first sight. My previous car left me stranded in Norman. I made an appointment with the dealership to have it maintenanced. When I left the dealership, I saw my Pink Panther in the lot. I did a little quick research, and BOOM. I never drove my old car again!

Questions or comments?
It's funny because it's usually men who compliment the color. They always stop me to ask "Is that Rose Gold or Champagne?"
