With a newly minted design degree in hand, Jessica returned to her native Panama to launch her interior design career.  But frustration with the quality of workmanship and other resources lead her to a real estate business.  She got to step into her passion to help others and experience the magic of assisting people in seeing a new path forward in locating the perfect new home for them.  As life took her and her family back and forth from North America (Canada) to Central America, Jessica recognized that the singular thing that all buyers had in common was a dream for the home that they were purchasing. 

Taking a deeper look at the reasons that she didn't take decisive design action helped her recognize that she could help new homeowners in a way that no one else was.  She could devise systems that would help first time home buyers transform their new purchases into homes that they could love and be proud of even if there wasn't a large budget to do so.  By looking at her own life retrospectively she saw how she could bring her design savvy and training to a much larger audience and help others avoid the regret she experienced by not doing the things that could have made her home a more functional and joyful place to be. 

Jessica and I have so many similar beliefs about how important your home (whether you own or rent) is to how you feel and function in life.  We had so much fun sharing our paths to discovering these truths.
