Reed was born in Nashville. He attended Lipscomb University where he studied Marketing and Business. While in college, Reed spent his summers in college working with Southwester Advantage. During this time he worked on average over 85 hours a week selling educational products door-to-door in what he would say is one of the most challenging internships a college student can be involved with. While he was there he recruited, trained, and managed an organization of over 25 students. During this time he spent several hundred hours coaching and training others as well as being mentored himself. After leaving Southwestern Advantage, Reed was the first employee with Property Management Connection. There he learned the ins and outs of the real estate investment world. Today he is a successful residential Realtor and loves showing people around his home town.
