Real Estate Entrepreneur

In March 2014, Brian faced a pivotal decision regarding his educational and professional path. Having achieved strong results in the LSAT (Law School Admissions Test) and considering his initial interest in medical school to follow in his father’s footsteps, he reached a turning point. However, a life-altering experience during a three-week hospitalization altered his perspective, leading him to redirect his aspirations towards business school. Brian successfully obtained a degree in Finance & International Business from Florida International University (FIU) in 2014.

During his time in business school, Brian seized the opportunity to work for various foreclosure law firms, propelling his career progression and gaining comprehensive insights into the end-to-end process. His involvement in a business law course sparked a keen interest in the legal field. After a few years of experience in law firms, Brian realized that a confined cubicle existence with limited vacation time would not provide the fulfillment he sought.

Subsequently, an enticing opportunity presented itself to enter the luxury real estate market, with a specific focus on catering to the Spanish-speaking demographic. Recognizing the potential for growth and personal satisfaction, Brian decided to embark on a Master’s degree in International Real Estate in 2016.

In 2017, Brian took a significant step by founding One International World, a distinguished brokerage that prioritizes providing an enjoyable real estate experience to individuals from diverse backgrounds, cultures, and languages. By embracing inclusivity and celebrating the unique qualities of every client, the brokerage strives to surpass expectations and ensure client satisfaction.

This professional evolution showcases Brian’s commitment to continuous growth and his dedication to crafting a real estate journey that is tailored to the needs and aspirations of his clientele.

Cosmopolitan

During his pursuit of a bachelor’s degree at university, Brian’s best friend posed a significant question: what career path would bring him genuine happiness? At that juncture, Brian was on the path towards medical school, majoring in Chemistry. Reflecting on his aspirations, he expressed a heartfelt desire for a career that involved travel, yearning for the opportunity to explore the world in his future endeavors.

Brian’s first substantial exposure to travel came in 2008 when he ventured to Israel, followed by visits to Paris, France in 2011, and Kyiv, Ukraine in 2012. However, it was in 2014 that Brian embarked on a new chapter, transitioning into the world of real estate after willingly parting ways with his full-time job. This decision was driven by his recognition of real estate’s potential for offering the flexibility he sought in managing his time effectively.

Upon commencing his real estate career, Brian found himself catering to a discerning clientele from Spanish-speaking South American countries, notably Mexico, Colombia, and Argentina. Frequent interactions with these high-end clients led Brian to travel extensively throughout South America, establishing strong connections and building trust with his clientele.

In 2017, a Brazilian client served as an invaluable mentor, inspiring Brian to delve deeper into the Brazilian market. His inaugural trip to Brazil in 2018 revealed promising business prospects, prompting him to learn Portuguese to further enhance his services in the dynamic Miami real estate landscape. Since then, Brian has made thirteen subsequent trips to Brazil, solidifying his presence and expanding his client base in the region.

The exposure to various cultures and languages through his travels proved instrumental in Brian’s career. Recognizing the significance of communication, he added conversational Russian to his linguistic repertoire, inspired by his experiences in Ukraine and Russia. Equipped with an understanding of different cultural norms, expressions, and ways of thinking, Brian adeptly navigates transactions on behalf of his clients, regardless of the cultural context.

Brian’s remarkable journey exemplifies how a passion for travel can intertwine with one’s professional pursuits, enriching his expertise in the real estate industry and fostering genuine connections with clients worldwide.

Humanitarian

Brian’s commitment to humanitarian work has always been an integral part of his aspirations. The initial spark ignited when he visited an orphanage in Tangier, Morocco, back in May 2019. This profound experience resonated within him, remaining in his subconscious until 2023.

With a desire to make a meaningful impact on the lives of those in need, Brian pondered where his contributions could have the most significant effect. He contemplated the potential of a single dollar in feeding people in America compared to the impact it could have in alleviating hunger in less fortunate countries across the globe. Ukraine, a country with which Brian developed a strong bond since his first visit in 2012 and with the start of a war in February, 2022.

In October 2022, as the devastating war ravaged Ukraine, Brian journeyed there for eight days despite the absence of most, if not all, of his friends who had fled to various parts of Europe and America. Leveraging the knowledge, connections, and expertise amassed over a decade, Brian navigated his way through the country.

In April 2023, Brian took his first concrete steps into humanitarian work, visiting two orphanages in eastern and western Ukraine. Driven by the belief that his purpose extended beyond real estate, he sought to do his part in supporting those in need. This endeavor is now evolving and taking shape, as Brian is determined to channel his efforts towards making a positive impact.

During his visits to the orphanages, Brian not only witnessed the challenging circumstances faced by the children but also observed firsthand the devastating effects of war on communities and infrastructure. These experiences further solidified his commitment to humanitarian work, fueling his resolve to contribute meaningfully and effect positive change wherever possible.

As Brian’s venture into humanitarian work continues to evolve, his dedication and compassion exemplify the essence of making a difference in the lives of others, transcending the realm of real estate to embrace a broader vision of philanthropy and social responsibility.

Personal Life

Born in the vibrant city of San Diego, California, Brian’s journey has taken him across continents, from the captivating coastlines of California to the bustling metropolis of Lima, Peru, and finally settling in the dynamic realm of Miami, Florida.

Beyond his real estate endeavors, Brian is an avid reader, sports enthusiast, and strategic thinker. Whether engrossed in a book, engaged in soccer, tennis, or chess, he relentlessly pursues personal and intellectual growth. Adhering to the motto that “Time is Money,” Brian tactfully maximizes his time to cover multiple grounds efficiently.

A proud Leo, Brian indulges in the pleasure of dining on sushi at least once a week, savoring moments of culinary delight. Among his culinary preferences, pasta carbonara holds a special place, and he relishes the refined taste of whiskey on the rocks, a choice that perfectly complements his sophisticated palate.
