This year’s Douglas Elliman Ellie Awards marked an important milestone for me.
I was honored to finish #3 in the Hamptons in transactions, #14 in GCI, #14 in sales volume, and top 9% companywide as an independent agent.
To achieve this at a young age, within a global brand like Douglas Elliman, and in a shark tank market like the Hamptons, means a lot to me.
Turning 30 this year also marks a new decade of my life — and the realization that this journey has been 10 years in the making.
I saw this vision clearly even before I had my real estate license. I believed that if I kept going and refused to quit, it would eventually happen. But it hasn’t been easy.
For the past decade I’ve operated with a delusional confidence. At times, only a small group of people believed in the vision.
To the clients who trusted me with major life decisions, and the colleagues and mentors who helped guide me — thank you.
I always thought reaching these goals would bring a sense of arrival. But this is far from the finish line.
When I started, I didn’t have the traditional advantages.
No degree.
No connections.
No handouts.
Just a vision and an irrational belief in what could be possible.
From day one, my philosophy has been simple: do the right thing and operate with integrity. Give more than you take and show up authentically.
At the end of the day, the only things you leave behind are your character and your reputation.
So the climb continues.
Always raising the bar. Never settling.
If you want something in life, go for it. Believe in yourself, listen to the fire inside you, and always do the right thing.
Somehow, life has a way of returning that energy tenfold.
