In this episode, she shares how women approach investing differently and why she believes women aren't a niche in investing, but actually the future of it.

About Our Guest:

While studying to become a social worker, I was introduced to Rich Dad Poor Dad like Andresa. And that's when the trajectory of my life changed.

After a year of taking countless classes at a local REIA, analyzing hundreds of deals, and getting a ton of "no's", my now husband and I purchased our first investment property which was a duplex outside of Philadelphia.

Today, our team owns and manages millions of dollars of real estate. I have learned a ton of lessons. But most importantly, I discovered how complicated – and essential – it is for women to have the tools we need to successfully balance our lives as women, wives, moms, and entrepreneurs. That's why we created our InvestHER®
