I landed in Adelaide in 2014, following my Australian wife, whom I had met a few years earlier in Paris. Despite having minimal connections, my positive mindset, determination, and five years of experience as a commercial property valuer in Paris quickly propelled me into a role at Knight Frank, one of the top four global commercial property agencies, where I thrived as a sales and leasing consultant.

Within less than 18 months, I was recruited by Vicinity Centres, a major Real Estate Investment Trust, to manage the leasing for shopping centers across South Australia. After seven years with the company, a restructuring plan was implemented, and I was made redundant.

Although it was a shock at the time, looking back, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. It provided me with the perfect opportunity to break free from the draining 9-to-5 corporate grind and reset my career. This allowed me to pursue a more fulfilling path by building a business dedicated to positively impacting people’s lives and helping as many as possible craft the lifestyle they want through property.
