Blake Smith is a 10 year Army combat veteran. He served in both Iraq and Afghanistan during his tours of duty. After leaving the military, he completed a bachelor degree in psychology with a minor in business from the University of Wisconsin. While getting a degree in his 30s, he was always working any job he could get to make ends meat. One of the things he did was become a Magic the Gathering Judge and work on the GP circuit until he moved to Charlotte in 2019.

Once moving to Charlotte, he decided to get his real estate license in both North and South Carolina. On January 1st 2020, he started 2 businesses: a real estate company and real estate photography company. Both companies are designed to feed off each with networking and marketing. Having both companies was a big reason his businesses survived the initial shutdowns by COVID. With a lot of hard work and dedication, he was successful in both ventures. 

Now, he is transforming his real estate company into a real estate team as well as creating an investment corporation to allow him to start new opportunities as well as investing in others. He also accepted a position as a mentor and trainer at the real estate company that he partnered with. Some of his plans for the future include writing a book and achieving his weight loss goals. He has lost 90lbs so far.

Blake is a determined entrepreneur and investor, who is always keeping his eyes out for opportunities and ways to help himself and those important to him.
