Growing-up, I first started working in second grade by mowing lawns around the neighborhood. As I got older, I started taking on more lawns and various other types of work. I began my caddy-career the summer going into eighth grade. Between the two jobs, I learned some hard but very valuable lessons. The numerous times riding my bike to the Country Club, waiting around all day, and not getting a loop taught me about delayed gratification. Building my own lawn mowing clientele instilled in me an entrepreneurial spirit. And lastly, interacting with so many different types of personalities on and off the course taught me how to sell yourself by not being the typical “schmoozer” salesman but truly being someone’s trusted adviser. I am now very grateful to have found a career in Commercial Real Estate with NAI Hiffman that has allowed me to transfer and grow these skills in my everyday work. NAI Hiffman allows me to collaborate with team members on different deals daily to achieve the best possible results for clients. NAI Hiffman also has a platform that exemplifies delayed gratification by “always putting the client first” and allowing us to truly be trusted advisers, helping companies and clients with some of the most impactful decisions to their bottom lines.
