Description
Nicole Winters is a Senior Vice President at Jones Lang LaSalle, one of the largest commercial real estate companies of its kind in the world. JLL is ranked 189th on the Forbes 500 list. Commercial real estate is an incredibly lucrative, difficult industry to enter into. It's a very competitive, male dominated industry and often called "a boys' club." Nicole is literally the definition of a #bosslady. Mostly because of her infectious charisma, razor sharp wit and hilarious personality. But she didn’t start out doing this job or become successful overnight. She was a professional dancer in her teens and early twenties.
