About the Founder
Nicole Joyce knows the successes and challenges of being an agent. As a top-producing agent at the Southwest Market Center in Houston, she witnessed the launch of eEdge and the subsequent struggle many had utilizing the innovative tools. With a desire to help others succeed, she began training agents and offering technology solutions to leadership, soon becoming the Houston Area Director of KW Technology. To meet the growing demands for supporting the technology needs of 14 market centers she founded UpTechpro, Technology Solutions for Productivity, in 2013. Starting with basic technology setups, her team has expanded to include paperless on boarding, dotloop dashboard management, website enhancements, and more. Most of her Market Center clients now offer her setups as an integral part of their agents' startup package.
As a KW Technology Ambassador she has served as a panelist and presenter for breakout sessions at KW Family Reunion & KW Mega Camp. Nicole is thrilled about the commitment of KWRI Leadership has made to becoming industry innovators in technology. She is a champion to the cause for elevating the KW Technology Ambassador role in supporting the market center leadership and agents. Her UpTechpro team is made up of dedicated associates who continue to help agents successfully harness their KW Technology to reach their full potential.
Prior to entering real estate, Nicole worked as a construction designer and project manager overseeing the restoration of historical structures with meticulous care and accuracy. She enjoys immersing herself in new cultures through travel, and loves a good puzzle-which probably explains her knack for problem solving!
