John Myers

John Myers grew up in Lakeview as the eighth of nine children and graduated from New Orleans Academy, where his father taught and coached from the early 1950s until the school's closing in 1986. He received his degree in Economics from the University of New Orleans, where he also worked in the Division of Business and Economic Research under Dr. Tim Ryan.

John then became an associate of Jean Felts, for whom he appraised commercial real estate, covering a range of tasks from vacant land valuation to determining just compensation for owners of property involved in the convention center expansion. After serving as general manager of a local janitorial and chemical supply company, John joined his brother's business, training both teachers and students in desktop publishing software for annual yearbook production and assisting coaches with athletic awards programs, including letter jackets, patches, and championship rings.

During this time, John met Tracie, and in the evenings and weekends, he served as her unlicensed assistant. When their grandson, now six years old, came along, it made sense for John to obtain his real estate salesperson and broker licenses to help conduct real estate business while they provided daycare during Grayson's formative years. With their grandchild now in school, John focuses full-time on helping both his clients and fellow agents achieve their goals and lead lives they love.
