About Licia Leal Group

I am a native of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; and, I have been residing in the United States for the past 42 years. First, I lived in Monterey, California. Next, I moved to New York City, where I lived for 10 years. Finally, I relocated to South Florida, where I have been for the past 13 years. I earned my Bachelors of Arts degree in Architecture & Design at Bennett University in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. However, I had a passion for working with the public and redirected my education. I studied travel, tourism, translation, and interpretation. Afterward, I began my career at Varig Brazilian Airlines. I worked at Varig Airlines for 10 years and at United Airlines for 3 years. Taking into account the 13 years of working with people from all over the world, exploring different countries, and learning about several cultures, I challenged myself as an entrepreneur. I established my own import and export business working directly with South America for 5 years.In 1999, I changed direction and headed into real estate. I embarked on this new path with Century 21 Tenace Realty in Coral Springs, Florida. In March 2004, I had the opportunity to work at Prudential Florida Realty in Aventura, Florida, now Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Florida Realty.
