Hey there, I’m Joe 🙂
I have been living in and around Hollywood Since 2015.
I am the oldest of 6 kids and Was born and raised in Brooklyn, New york.
Since moving to Florida I really Enjoy the beach, Fishing, Spending time Immersed in the culture, and Rigorous Fitness Training.
I love riding My Motorcycle On weekends to the Car shows and Farmers’ markets and getting to know the people and vendors.
I am the Modern Day Agent at a Local Real Estate Office called EXP Realty, and I Really Enjoy spending time in coffee shops and eateries around and about Young circle.
Personally, I love My Family. I am an active volunteer in many events in our community. I enjoy reading and learning.
Mostly, I love people. I love helping others. If ever I can help you in any way, please don’t hesitate to ask.
We’ve helped many of the local Doctors and nurses throughout covid with our healthcare heroes program, By dropping off coffee and donuts and hosting many events at the hospitals.
We also do events at schools, some of which you all may have heard of.
I’m proud of the reputation of the Healthcare Heros program. Maybe you might have seen the signs around town as more doctors and nurses move into our neighborhood.
A Few years ago, I Finished my Military service and Felt inspired to create a world of abundance through service. We can all build a world of abundance for ourselves by helping others. This project is a way for me to celebrate this community and the people in it while I learn about who lives here and how I can help them. If we were to all take pause and show interest in others, none of us would want for anything. Collectively, we have so much to offer one another.
The Faces of Hollywood is a celebration of all the people who live here and positively impact our community in some way. It may be by their positive attitude and energy. It may be by the business they’ve brought to our community. It may be their role in directly serving our community. The reality is, that we have a great community because of the people who live here and it’s my desire to highlight the great people here and introduce you all to each other. My hope is that this project creates a closer community here in Hollywood. I welcome you to join me in authoring the story of Hollywood, as told by the people who live here, one smiling face at a time.
Hey hey! I’m Ariel. ☺️
I am the youngest of 3 – an older brother I grew up with, and an older sister who is exactly 5 years and 5 minutes older than me (crazy right?!?!🤯) who lives in Israel.
I was born in Hollywood, and raised all over south Florida until I was a teenager. I went to 7 different elementary schools and 1 middle school (McNicol for my Hollywood peeps) and then moved to New York with my mom and older brother with 3 days notice and 1 suitcase.
Leaving behind everything I ever knew and loved was devastating at the time, because Hollywood was my home, but it gave me the ability to see a whole new world – and believe me, NYC really is a whole universe of its own…if you know, you know 😂. After a couple of years in NY, I migrated over to good ole’ West Haven, Connecticut, where I lived just about as long as I lived in FL, which I now reside in again…where you might ask? Hollywood, of course.
I am a fun-loving, grounded, free-spirit…(if that even makes sense) with a passion for people, educating, traveling and the arts. Whenever I can, I love singing, dancing, acting, modeling and performing in musical theater productions. They are my favorite creative outlets!
My professional background is in finance where I have 8 years of experience in banking with a focus on retirement planning, lending and small business. I pivoted from the banking sector of finance to what was always my favorite piece of the business, to what I have found to be my true love, Real Estate!
I am a Real Estate Professional with eXp realty and a financial educator in which I use my banking background to teach financial literacy and the basics of homeownership, investing, budgeting and credit.
Educating people on how to navigate their finances and grow their small businesses is a true passion of mine, and there is a real gap in available options for people who are truly seeking assistance in those arenas. I often volunteer my time to those who need extra help in these categories in CT and NY, but after moving back to Hollywood, I want to bring these gifts back home!
Living in other states and traveling around the world has shown me so much raw, vivid, beauty and has given me an immensely different outlook on life. But it also gave me a real appreciation for HOME. I want to celebrate all the faces of Hollywood, get to know and serve the community of the place that I call home.
