Why did you decide to get into Commercial Real Estate?

With parents in construction, I was drawn at a young age to the dynamic aspect of the industry and the impact it had on clients. I knew I wanted a similar path, though not directly in construction, and through my time at Fisher, organizations like Fisher Real Estate Society and Women in Real Estate, along with Center for Real Estate events, I was able to find that path in commercial real estate.
