Transition from Lifeguard to Buyer's Agent

Starting as a lifeguard due to a love for the beach, transitioning to a buyer's agent came from a history of property investment and a fascination with real estate.

Despite the perceived disparity between the two roles, there was unexpected synergy in signing real estate clients who knew the speaker from his lifeguarding days.
