Discover Our Students’ Experiences Through Their Own Words: Tamera Nalls

“As part of Keller Williams Luxury International, I am devoted to delivering exceptional customer experience while meeting the needs of real estate buyers and sellers throughout the Dallas metroplex. Some of my tasks are going on listing appointments, buyer consultations, open houses, lead generation and communicating with past clients so I stay top of mind.

“The best part of my Dallas College experience was the faculty coupled with the small, intimate class size. The most important thing I learned was that people do business with people they know, like and trust, so how I conduct myself is important. Another thing I learned was that I am my brand no matter where I am or who I'm with.

“The Dallas College Real Estate program prepared me for real-life work because the faculty are all industry professionals. They did not just talk; they all walked the walk.

“Completing my training with Dallas College was one of the best decisions I could have ever made. I recommend it to everyone looking to pursue a career as a real estate professional.“

Tamera Nalls completed a Real Estate certificate at Dallas College Cedar Valley Campus.

Senior Accountant American Home Mortgage Servicing

“My experience was really good; I learned a lot about different types of loans, underwriting and loan origination. The program gave us a broad overview from the get-go. I didn’t have any previous experience in mortgage banking at all, so it really helped me to prepare for changing jobs into the industry.”

“The most important thing I learned in my education was a sense of accomplishment and purpose, and that nothing is impossible as long as I am willing to expend the effort to reach my goals. I have been promoted a number of times in recent years, into positions of more and more responsibility as a direct result of my education.”
