Hi Friends!

My name is Jennifer and I'm new to the REI world. I currently own a small Asset Management business that maintains foreclosures and REO's for the banks. But my background is everything but Real Estate. My past experience ranges from being a budget analyst for NASA for several years to owning a small fitness center to being an Executive Admin for a big wig at a large oil and gas company. All have been awesome learning experiences, but this year I've reached that proverbial fork in the road. I have been wanting a change in my life and I know that 2016 is time. I was going back and forth with the idea of enrolling in a real estate school to get my license as an agent. However the idea of Real Estate Investing happened to present itself to me recently and I am ecstatic about it! Right now I consider myself as a sponge just trying to learn and absorb as much as I can (no not from scams but from nice people like you here on Bigger Pockets)!! Thanks for having me and I am looking forward to meeting all of you!
