Today we’d like to introduce you to Jennell Robinson.
Jennell, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
I have been driven by the desire to create a lasting legacy for my two sons — my ultimate “why” — turning my passion for people into a purpose-driven career in real estate. With proud Caribbean roots and over 20 years of leadership and customer service experience, she serves as a Realtor®, Notary, and Operations Manager at Lockett-Jones Realty Group.
It brings me joy to be known for caring, nurturing approach and commitment to ensuring that my clients truly understand every step of the process — whether buying, selling, or learning about homeownership. Having helped over a hundred clients and led quarterly homebuyer education classes, I hope to continue empowering families to build generational wealth and stability.
My mission is simple: to serve with excellence, compassion, and purpose — creating opportunities today that become legacies tomorrow.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Real estate is not an easy route — it definitely comes with its ups and downs. My first few years were on the slower side until I connected with a team that provided solid training and a true example of consistency. Their structure and process aligned perfectly with the way I prefer to handle life in general — steady, intentional, and growth-focused.
