She developed strong relationships with buyers and teams throughout the Southern California territory. This led to a position with a top brokerage as a key accounts rep. In 2005, Jackie started Sepulveda Sales LLC. Jackie is an expert at multitasking. She is organized, reliable, personable and consistent with her accounts as well as her principals which has led to many " broker of the year" awards for a number of her companies.
