I was born and grew up in New York City, where I studied fashion design in the Art Institute in New York City. Upon moving to Puerto Rico, I worked as an operation manager in our family fashion designing and manufacturing business while I pursued my BBA and MBA in Business Administration from the University of Puerto Rico and concentrated on mastering the Spanish language and culture. I later moved to Houston, Texas. In Houston I owned and operated an insurance agency. I have also worked in mergers and acquisitions, mortgage and lending and real estate.


I have presently completed my CBR (Certificate Buyers Representation) SRES (Senior Real Estate Specialist) ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative) MCNE (Master Certified Negotiations Expert) and SRS (Seller Representation Specialist)
