In this inspiring episode, Tim Fergestad sits down with Brent Lavin, Director of Strategic Growth at BD’s Peripheral Intervention Division, to explore a dynamic life of innovation, service, and smart investing. Brent shares how a personal medical experience shifted his career into medtech, leading him to help bring cutting-edge innovations to market.
We also hear about Brent’s passion for service—both locally and globally—including life-changing mission trips to Cambodia and impactful work through his local church. The conversation takes a turn into real estate, where Brent reveals how he got started with multifamily properties, used a 1031 exchange, and now self-manages a single-family portfolio in Arizona.
Whether you’re curious about medtech, global missions, or building long-term wealth through real estate, Brent offers insight, humility, and actionable wisdom.
