Yeah

... young guy.

And, um, a lot of our customers would be real estate agents, um, builders, developers, and I would start getting to know about this side of the, you know, of, of the, their work and I thought, "Wow, that's so amazing." I've always loved construction and, and buildings and things and, you know, I guess growing up, uh, I un- I sort of s- learnt quickly about the, the value of or how, how spaces and property im- im- uh, impact our lives.

So, you know, I, um, I shared a bedroom with my brother until I was in my early teens, and we didn't have much, but I really, um, could see how much your environment influenced how you think and feel about yourself, how you act in the world.

And so, you know, and during my studies at uni, I was learning, thinking more about that sort of stuff, studying philosophy and, and, um, and, and psychology and marketing.

Uh, and so I was talking to the customers at the supplement store, the, the, the agents, the builders, and I still remember this one customer, he came at the very end of the, well, the shop was about to close and we ended up spending, I think it was 45 minutes chatting 'cause I was so amazed by his story, and it just inspired me and I thought, "You know, I'm at the end of my business degree." I wasn't really sure where I was gonna go with it.

Um, and- Having those conversations really sort of cemented, oh, well, maybe there's a, there's a, a path for me in property development.

Mm.
