I took the
stable-job route.
Then kept going.

I left a $341K tech career to build a life I actually wanted. That meant owning real things: a $2.5M real estate portfolio, started with one property at 22. It also meant a failed apparel business, which taught me that buying an existing business, customers, employees, and cash flow intact, beats starting from zero every time.

As a business broker associate with BTI Group, I guide the handoff: owners who built something worth keeping, matched with buyers who’ll keep it that way.

I care about what happens to the people and the business after the papers are signed.
