This Week in John’s Life
This week I released some new team photos (image here). The team was delighted to work with the talented Matt Tinney at Tinney Photo (connect here). We also published a Q&A to get to know me a little better (link here).
This week I am heading down to Victoria to compete in the South Island Realtor Softball Tournament (link here). This is a big charity fundraiser and it is the 2nd year I have been involved as an athlete on the eXp Team.
