Russell Ham:

Russell Ham was born in Southern California about 10 minutes from Disneyland. He is the youngest of four boys all born in the 60's. After graduating high school, he began coaching high school boy's basketball. He continued to coach for 30 years until last year. Russell is a high school PE teacher and is married to his beautiful wife, Emily, and they have two children, Laci and Jesse. They also have two dogs, Ella and Willow.

Russell started with SREC in April of 2019. Russell was looking for a real estate niche (i.e. fix & flip, buy & hold, BRRRR) and came across Chris' Youtube channel. Instantly Russell got hooked for two reasons: One, how open Chris, Zach, and Nick were with showing you how to do real estate on terms through the YouTube channel and two, the Wicked Smart community is second to none. They show you the way to be successful and are with you coaching/mentoring you side by side.
