Nice To Meet You!
Welcome to My Digital Home!
Come on in! I’m thrilled to have you here. Let’s sit down, get comfortable, and chat about how we can turn your big dreams into reality.
I've been where you are, navigating the challenging yet exciting world of entrepreneurship. From transforming historic buildings to building digital empires, I’ve done it all without partners or investors.
Let’s explore how you can build your own success story.
TAKE A LOOK INSIDE
Everything starts with an idea. Your idea is unique to you. There is something in you calling you to pursue that idea and bring it to life.
It's important to know I wasn't a commercial real estate developer before this project. I became one through this experience. I say this to inspire you to disregard your doubts and take one step at a time towards bringing your vision to life.
Join me for a tour inside my favorite project—transforming a 12,000 sq ft historic hardware store into a thriving commercial multiplex. This experience wasn’t just about brick and mortar; it was about preserving history, fostering community, and building something that lasts.
Check out the transformation and imagine what we can create together.
YOUR IMPACT
Case Study: Ever Dreamed of Owning Your Business and the Real Estate?
Starting a business takes money, and finding that money can feel like a mountain to climb. I’ve been there, and I want to show you how to get the funds you need without falling for schemes or quick fixes. Your business deserves a solid foundation.
Picture this: turning a historic property into a bustling business hub. This case study reveals how a 1916 hardware store was transformed into a vibrant community center. From landing one of the largest SBA 504 loans for a woman, minority-owned startup, to mastering historic preservation and adaptive reuse, this project showcases what’s possible with vision and the right funding.
Access to this level of detailed, real-world experience isn’t easy to come by. It’s a rare chance to learn from a project that combines commercial real estate, enterprise zones, and smart funding strategies. By tapping into this case study, you’ll get the know-how on making a solid business plan, handling SBA loans, and bringing a big vision to life.
Don’t let the fear of finding funds hold you back. This is your chance to see what you can achieve when your passion meets the right opportunity.
For the cost of my next cup of coffee and a cookie, you'll gain exclusive insights and detailed strategies.
