Juliet Janét

My name is Juliet and I am from a tiny West Texas town. I got my undergraduate degree from Texas Tech University, but don’t worry I “wised up” and moved to Austin to get my Master’s from The University of Texas. Both degrees are in Advertising and give me an upper hand in being able to sift through the very cluttered apartment advertising landscape in order to find you a place you’ll actually want to call home. As a person who has moved nine times in six years, I understand the struggle of house hunting and just want to make the situation stress-free and exciting for you, as it should be.

Prasam Poudel

I was born in Kathmandu, Nepal, but I grew up in Nairobi, Kenya, and I moved to the United States to further my education at UT Austin. I am an Applied Movement Science Major with a certificate in Strength and Conditioning and Elements of Computing. My hobbies include: playing soccer, exploring new places, and trying new things. I dabble in everything from coaching, to web development, to real estate and much more. Out of all the cities I’ve seen, I’ve found nothing like Austin. I always tell people: “the only way you can be bored in this city is if you don’t look around.” With a city as lively, with such a unique culture as Austin - one can never run out of things to do. Food to try. Views to see. Experiences to have. And that’s where I come in. I have experienced much of Austin during my time at UT, and I can help you find your ideal housing so you can experience Austin too.

In my free time, I enjoy hiking, paddle boarding, watching sitcoms, and following Formula 1. Having moved cities and countries and going through the long, tedious process of finding the perfect place to call home, I understand the pressure that comes with it. I aim to be available and understanding to you during every step of the process and hope to build a positive relationship.
