Alex Talavera

At 17 years old, I left Cuba on a homemade raft, risking my life for the chance to reach American soil—the land of freedom, where dreams can become reality. Building a life in the United States at a young age without my family was a difficult journey, one that shaped me into the resilient, hardworking, and compassionate person I am today.

I earned my bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry from the University of New Mexico and competed in triathlons during college—experiences that strengthened my discipline, endurance, and focus. Professionally, I spent 20 years as a nutritional consultant and 10 years as a business owner before transitioning into sales, where I became a top-performing salesperson at CarMax.

Today, I am a highly motivated real estate professional committed to serving my clients with integrity, dedication, and care. My goal is to create meaningful value in every transaction while confidently guiding clients toward achieving their real estate goals.
