LIVING HER BEST LIFE
“Earlier in life, I always wanted to live the ‘jet-setting actress wannabe’ lifestyle,” Nikki begins with a laugh. Nikki is an outgoing, people-focused, adventurous spirit. During her twenties, she worked for a major airline, traveling the world for free as a sales specialist and customer service supervisor. She then entered the fitness industry, becoming a force for the fastest-growing health club in Tampa Bay. She went back to school for culinary management and was recruited to do wedding planning for a boutique caterer. The throughline in all of Nikki-Lyn’s work is her love for meeting and helping others. “I love connecting people,” she beams. “Building relationships, supporting small businesses, and cultivating community — it’s a natural part of who I am.” Over the years, many friends and colleagues had suggested Nikki give real estate sales a shot. When a friend and life coach encouraged her to follow her dream into real estate in 2013, she finally decided to dive in.
