Today, we proudly introduce Joani Gill, a true force of talent and expertise, as the newest member of our team. With her remarkable background and unwavering commitment to exceptional service, Joani brings a fresh perspective and invaluable skills to the world of real estate. Join us as we welcome Joani and embark on an exciting new chapter together!

Joani Gill's journey has been nothing short of extraordinary. After an illustrious career in the couture fashion industry, where she dressed television personalities, celebrities, international royalty, and Washington's upper echelon, Joani made the heartfelt decision to return home to West Michigan to raise her children. This homecoming marked the beginning of a new chapter, one that would see Joani's passion and dedication flourish in the realm of real estate.

Joani's unwavering belief that all individuals should be treated fairly, with respect, kindness, and professionalism, sets her apart as a real estate professional. This conviction was forged during a chance encounter at Neiman Marcus, where Joani's exceptional service transformed a neglected customer into a loyal client and friend. Her commitment to going above and beyond, even in the face of assumptions, has earned her accolades and gratitude from those she has served.

Joani seamlessly transitioned from the "leather and lace" of the fashion industry to the world of "nuts and bolts," joining her family's manufacturing firm. Holding leadership roles in strategy, public relations, communications, and business development, Joani's competitiveness, determination, and resilience became her guiding principles. Notably, she played a pivotal role in building a $25 million office furniture division within five years.

In 2011, seeking a new challenge, Joani embarked on a career in finance and insurance. With a focus on investments and wealth planning, she specialized in helping business owners successfully exit the companies they built. Her commitment to serving clients' needs with empathetic listening, warmheartedness, and professional expertise garnered recognition and numerous accolades, including Executive Council Awards and Million Dollar Roundtable honors.

For Joani, buying or selling a home is not merely a transaction; it is a significant life decision. She approaches each opportunity as a privilege and an honor, providing personalized service and guidance to her clients. Joani's greatest joy lies in successfully serving her clients' needs, fostering personal, intimate, and trusting relationships along the way. For her, this final career in real estate is the culmination of a lifelong journey, and she couldn't be more thrilled to call it home.

Having lived in various communities across West Michigan for nearly thirty years, Joani has developed a deep-rooted connection to the region. From Ada to Ottawa Hills, Grandville to the Lakeshore, and now East Grand Rapids, she has embraced the diverse beauty and opportunities that this area offers. In her free time, Joani enjoys socializing, playing tennis, traveling with family, and immersing herself in various outdoor activities. Her pursuit of great food leads her to West Michigan's best restaurants or her own kitchen, where she enjoys creating culinary delights.

Joani's commitment to excellence extends beyond her professional endeavors. Her contributions to the West Michigan community are exemplified through her involvement in esteemed organizations. As the President of the Association for Corporate Growth (ACG) West Michigan, she played a significant role in women's finance and facilitated sustainable leadership. Additionally, her participation in the VanAndel Global Trade Center Automotive Symposium, the Grand Rapids Inventors Network (GRIN), and the West Michigan World Trade Association showcase her dedication to the growth and success of the community.

With great pleasure, we welcome Joani Gill to our real estate team at Griffin Properties. Her remarkable background, unwavering commitment to fairness and respect, and passion for serving clients make her an invaluable asset. Joani's versatility, expertise, and exceptional ability to build personal relationships ensure that every client will experience the highest level of service and dedication. Together, we are embarking on an exciting new chapter, ready to make dreams come true one home at a time. Welcome, Joani!
