Zayvien Dixon
Jackson,MS
Summary
My name is Zayvien Dixon, and I aspire to become a successful architect and a real estate agent with dreams of resurrecting my city in the future and settling families, married couples, entrepreneurs, celebrities, etc, in comfortable, suitable homes. I chose architecture because my home, Jackson, MS, was once a glorious and lively city. The city went downhill, and I want to revive it by building better homes and businesses and adding more activities to the town to make it great again. Because I am fascinated with the art and design of housing structures, I want to sell houses. I am very friendly and convincing. Socializing has never been a problem, so that I can be a great real estate agent. I plan to attend Mississippi State University in hopes of attending the School of Architecture for five years. After, I will come back and go to real estate school to receive my license to sell in Mississippi.
