ZION

Chief Financial Officer

Because I Am considered to be the "Most Frugal" of my Mother's three sons, I observe very closely how funds are deposited and how they are expended. I Am perfect for this position because I am not sure if I can sell a million dollars and much less a home! My position with our family's Real Estate Firm is to increase funds, increase financial knowledge and to increase the lives of our clients.

With a degree in Business and minors in Anthropology and International Global Studies from a very  Prestigious University, I strongly feel that people should live as they choose BUT within their budget and without offense, of course. I have traveled around the world regularly and have walked with the Elite and have sat with the Poor. The financial lessons that I have learned by just "paying attention" is priceless. Experiences are true wealth not money. 

My Mother and I practically grew up together since she gave birth to me at twenty-three years old and ninety days after her College Graduation. She was the first to graduate from college in her family. She did miraculously well given the harsh circumstances after college of becoming a Single Mother with three sons. My brothers and I would not let her fail after her divorce of a 16 year marriage. We all held each other up. Things were not easy for us, hence the strict allocation of funds, but we have always felt blessed with the support of family and dear friends. We created some really amazing memories in spite of our small budget. Today, however, I am proud to say that we have made great lives for ourselves. We are all healthy, happy and living our dreams.

I am proud of my mother, my brothers, my grandfather and myself for our tenacity and our bravery to remain focused in the face of fear, distractions and COVID-19.

Our Ancestors did not and will not play about us! Ase.
