Give us a snapshot of your professional/academic background.
I graduated from Millikin University in Decatur, IL with a Human Services degree.

From there I began my work as an Executive Assistant, and have worked with both nonprofit and for-profit organizations. Most recently I worked for a real estate investment firm that focused on purchasing and improving distressed multifamily housing.
