A 2024 re-introduction! 👋🏼
Things become a bit more ‘real’ when you leave your stable 9-5 job that you’d worked so hard to get to. But when things just don’t feel right and opportunities arise, follow your gut. And that’s what I did.
Hey, I’m Rachel! I decided to change paths in 2023 from being a full time architect to focusing on real estate investing and design, then simultaneously planned a wedding, got married, and invested in my first flip all in one year!
Now, my entrepreneurial life looks a bit like this:
🏠 I Invest! in real estate in the PNW—first fix-and-flips, and long term rentals to eventually acquire and manage a boutique hotel.
✍️ I Design! for both my investment properties and for other single family homes and small hotel or retail projects.
Work aside, life is short and we’re all here to live it fully. I keep my circle small but am energized when surrounded by new people— whether side hustling at my local retail shop or chatting with a stranger at the dog park.
🏔️ I feel at home in the PNW. A place where your heart and mind are always at ease with the clearest waters, the steepest mountains, and the most beautiful sunsets. But seriously!
⛺️ I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty! Sign me up for anything outdoors with a sleeping bag and a chipotle burrito and I’ll be okay for days.
🍷 Avid wine drinker. Very possibly a bottle per night. Shh..
🐶 When they say dogs are a woman’s best friend, they’re not kidding. I love my pups and as a result, I think they’ve become part human too.
I hope you’ll keep following along this journey. 🙌🏻
Figuring it out isn’t always the easiest and things don’t happen as fast as you’d like them to, but I aim to share the good and the bad and to inspire other women to embrace an entrepreneurial spirit, because you can do it! 💪🏼👏🏼
