A Bit About Me
My journey into real estate investing wasn't a straight line. Like many healthcare professionals, I climbed the corporate ladder, eventually leading a hospital as CEO. But despite achieving a traditional measure of success, I felt a growing sense of disconnect. The constant pressure, the focus on profit over people, and the feeling that I wasn't making the impact I desired – especially during the challenging years of the COVID-19 pandemic with its long hours and overwhelming demands – left me yearning for a change.
That's when I discovered land investing. While still working in healthcare, I took the leap and invested my savings – $40,000 – into my first land deal. A few months later, I sold that same property for $180,000. It was a revelation.
Since then, I quit my job in healthcare to go into real estate full time. I've built a thriving 7-figure land investing company and created a fund for accredited investors to passively participate in this lucrative market. But my greatest passion lies in helping others in the healthcare industry achieve similar success. I understand the unique challenges and aspirations of healthcare professionals, and I'm dedicated to providing the tools and knowledge to transition into real estate investing, whether through active deal-making or passive income strategies.
