My Life Mission - I serve God and others through entrepreneurship, education, and missional giving.

👉 Follower of Christ 💯

👉 Mom of 3 (ages 20, 3, and 1) and wife to @joshdates

👉 Former anthropologist, college & high school teacher, nutrition & personal fitness coach, and yoga teacher - traded hours for dollars doing what I loved, but was barely getting by financially and had no time for myself or my family / friends / community

👉 Dreamed of homeschooling my kids, volunteering my time, traveling, and building a better financial future for our family

👉 Leveraged a small IRA and credit cards to hire a local real estate investment coach

👉 Started investing in real estate in 2011 with $0 down creatively financed deals - rehabs, rentals, multi-family, lease/options, subject-to, and notes

👉 Started wholesaling as our targeted business strategy in October 2015 (thank you @tomkrol)

👉 Brought my husband home from his teaching job at the end of 2016 after we made more💰in one month than he was making in a year 🙌

👉 Hit our first $100k month in 2018, with many more since then

👉 Today, we run a lifestyle-focused virtual wholesaling and investment business and continue to invest in notes, rentals, and vacation rentals

👉 We love being able to run our team virtually from anywhere in the world while homeschooling and traveling with our children

👉 If we can do it, you can, too 💯

👉 We run REI Live Orlando, a FREE meetup group for local and national investors who want to network and learn - like us on Facebook, subscribe to our YouTube channel, join our Clubhouse club ✅

👉 We help investors dial in their systems to gain consistency and predictability in their deal flow
