My path to professional sales started with seven words that changed everything: "Jeremy...you're going to be a daddy…"
At 22, I was a small-town Iowa kid chasing a Hollywood dream of making movie monsters for a living. One afternoon, that plan instantly disappeared. Suddenly, I needed to support a family - and fast. With no prior sales experience, no marketable degree, and no guaranteed income, I took a blind leap of faith into luxury home improvement sales across the country for a family-run business in northern Virginia.
Most people thought I was out of my mind. I took that as motivation to prove them all wrong.
What followed was over 25 years of top-tier President's Club sales accolades, local and nationwide performance recognition at two publicly traded, industry-leading companies, and a referral-driven career built entirely from scratch on one principle: treat everyone like family and never give up.
A quote from Theodore Roosevelt has been my compass through it all:
"People don't care how much you know, until they know how much you care."
That belief is exactly what led me to real estate - because buying or selling a home isn't just a transaction. It's one of the most personal, high-stakes decisions a family ever makes. You deserve someone who treats it that way.
