Maine Soh was once a notorious leader back in her primary school days — bold, outspoken, and always making her presence known. But her principal, Mr Wee, saw something more: potential. She was appointed a “small teacher” to guide her classmates, and that simple act sparked a lifelong passion for teaching and leadership.

Fast forward to today — Maine graduated with a Diploma in Real Estate, ranking in the top 5% of her cohort. She was offered a place in NUS to pursue a degree in Real Estate and began her property career while still in school.

Over the past 16 years, she’s not only been active in personal sales but also took on the role of project-in-charge for multiple mega launches. In 2022, she took another bold step — building and leading her own team.

Join us in this episode, as Vivian sits down with Maine to talk about leadership, growth, and the real journey of building a real estate team from scratch.
