On today's episode we explore the incredible life of Cassie Lamoureux. Cassie is an artist at heart, and grew up in Central Florida and continues to reside there. With an academic background in art, she spent her twenties selling art and living on a school bus, exploring the USA and Canada. Later transitioning to martial arts, she dedicated many years to both learning and teaching until 2014. Despite purchasing her first home in her twenties, the 2008 market crash led to a short sale. In 2009, she ventured into property management and entered the realm of Real Estate Sales in 2011.

Initially a buyer's agent on a team for two years, she eventually embarked on an independent path. In 2017, she founded her own real estate team, consistently ranking in the top 10 for the region each year. Collaborating with her mother, a seasoned 38-year veteran in real estate, she became actively engaged as an agent at KW. Additionally, she serves as a MAPS Mastery one-on-one coach, dedicating a significant portion of her time to learning and coaching. When not immersed in the real estate world, she cherishes spending leisure time with family and friends, often opting for beach outings on her days off.
