Introduction:
Today we are fortunate to have with us none other than Samuel Radin - a Massachusetts native who has taken his talents like LeBron James recently did to Southern California. Sam is a senior at UCLA and the Director of Events for the Bruin Real Estate Association (BREA). When he isn’t quenching his insatiable thirst for real estate knowledge or strategically budgeting, coordinating and planning networking events and making a difference for members of the Bruin Real Estate Association, Sam enjoys being outdoors as much as possible, exploring all of the amazing places to eat in Southern California, and simply hanging with his friends.
