Which of our BHGRE<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>P.A.I.G.E. (Passion, Authenticity, Inclusion, Growth, Excellence) core values do you identify with most, and why?<\/h4>\n<p>I identify most with Authenticity. I think that if you are authentic, all the other core values will fall into place.<\/p>\n<p>Authenticity breeds Passion: It\u2019s easy to become passionate about something if you can be authentic when practicing it.<\/p>\n<p>It breeds Inclusion: If you are authentic, you will inspire others to be authentic as well. Authenticity is naturally attractive. As long as you are accepting of others\u2019 authenticity, this will breed a culture of inclusion.<\/p>\n<p>It breeds Growth: If you are authentic, this trait and its benefits will inspire you to improve upon things that you are truly interested in.<\/p>\n<p>It breeds Excellence: When we are our authentic selves <em>without<\/em> judgement and <em>with<\/em> reasonable guidance, we are much more likely to achieve excellence. What\u2019s more, we will be content with the excellence that we achieved if it came from a place of <em>authenticity<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h4>2.

What is the one characteristic that\u2019s helped you the most in your career?<\/h4>\n<p>I have a unique skill set in music and theater that gives me a different perspective on most things. It\u2019s also an easy conversation starter!<\/p>\n<h4>4. What was the last book you read?<\/h4>\n<p>The Culture Code by Dan Coyle. Strongly recommend!<\/p>\n<h4>5. If you were not in real estate, what would you be doing?<\/h4>\n<p>Probably just finishing up law school. I always had an interest in law and political science.<\/p>\n<h4>6. What was the last song you heard that you couldn\u2019t stop humming?<\/h4>\n<p>Giant by Calvin Harris &amp; Rag\u2019n\u2019Bone Man<\/p>\n<h4>7. Who is your real-life hero?<\/h4>\n<p>Probably my Grandpa Goering (Dad\u2019s dad). He passed away years before I could really appreciate how much we had in common.
