PARK CITY, UT—To build your brand, owning yourself is important, and it should happen from day one. So said Stephanie Gilezan, director of growth at eXp Commercial, at the GlobeSt.com national Women of Influence conference here in Park City, UT, as she discussed her journey getting to where she is today.
"The reason that I can be resilient is because I own my brand," she said. Gilezan began her commercial real estate career at just 21 years old and quickly became a force in the industry. After struggling to find a mentor who would commit the time to teaching her, she promised herself that she would dedicate her career to helping others.
That promise, she said, has shaped her entire approach to business. Today, Gilezan is a successful land developer, owns and operates a real estate team in the top 5% of producers in Kentucky and Indiana and is the director of growth at eXp Commercial, the commercial real estate division of eXp World Holdings, Inc.
