I hope to, not only make great connections with you all but, also help provide value. I am huge on experiences and love to surround myself with like minded people... hens why I am here XD

A little bit about my personal self:

I am the oldest sibling out of 3 and, like many other older siblings, get looked up to by my brother and sister.

I was born in Guatemala and moved to the United States with my mother, father, and grandmother when I was about 3 years old back in 2002-2003. Like many immigrants, we moved to hopefully live a better and safer life compared to our home country.

Starting a new life in a new country was definitely not easy, and required a lot of sacrifices from my parents. Fast forward a couple of years, my mother and father were working long and difficult hours every day. My mother started off working at a packing/shipping facility, where she spent the entire day standing and earning minimum wage. My father was working as landscaper and had to be up before the sun rose. Although he made more money, the physical workload was a more as well. We had to constantly move due to rents being increased, property conditions not being good, and trying to save money. In addition to that, it felt like no matter how hard my parents worked, money was always an issue.

Fast forward to today, My family and I have our own home, which we helped build ourselves from the ground up. My dad has a great handyman/construction business. My mother is a stay at home mom, who is absolutely AMAZING, SUPPORTIVE, and LOVING! From time to time she works with my dad and does 100x better job than some of the workers my dad has hired in the past.

I am now 23 years old, I've been working as a Realtor for a couple of years now, and have continued to grow my experience and knowledge in the world of real estate.

Joining the BiggerPockets community is the next step for me to achieve financial freedom, and not only support myself, but also my family. I want to be able to help my parents retire NOW and not have to work more than what they have already worked. I credit all of my past, present, and future success to them. I know that no matter what I do, I'll never be able to repay them for being the amazing parents that they are, so I'll at least make sure that they never NEED to work another day in their life. If they decide they want to, by all means, but never again because they are short on cash.

Again, I look forward to meeting as many of you as I can and thank you for taking the time out our your day to read my post :)

Let's continue the grind!
