Lewis has been a licensed real estate agent for 18 years but worked as a hobbyist until she teamed up with her friend and real estate partner, Jennifer Teske.

Since then, the team has increased their volume in leaps and bounds -- completing an 61 transactions last year and ramping up to an impressive 100 transactions in only the first 10 months of 2015.
