I started in real estate and has been licensed since 2015, my husband and I started Miami Estate Group, LLC that year with a partner and things did not go well so we closed it. We bought and renovated properties then put out for rent.
My husband being an owner of Wize Eyes optical, Inc., took me to Vision Expo in 2019 and that got me interested in going to the school to become a licensed optician. Although I can say even when I was around the optical business, I didn't know half of what I know today.
Hardworking Student offering part-time work experience and extensive knowledge of core subject matter. Meticulous and detail-oriented with excellent observational, organizational and communication skills.
I am a great team player and does great independently as well, very quick learner, takes my job very seriously and excels at whatever I do.
