Hello, Bigger Pockets Community! My name Is Brian and I live in Minneapolis. I am currently serving in the Minnesota Air National Guard and a full-time student at the University of Minnesota studying Finance and Entrepreneurship. I want to start Real Estate investing as soon as possible. I am looking forward to expanding my network, meeting fellow investors, and learning as many lessons in any way I can. Happy to be a part of the community!
