Prior to 2017, she worked in the corporate world in the oil and gas industry before obtaining her real estate license. Before joining the Oppenheim Group, Chelsea was an agent at Rodeo Realty which is another L.A. based agency. Chelsea stated in an exclusive with People, “For me personally, I saw this as an opportunity to really open doors in an industry that has lacked diversity and where minorities are underrated. This was kind of my time to give back and to educate and really mentor and push forward Black women in this luxury sector in real estate.” 

Chelsea talked about how her co-stars have played as a source of inspiration to her future. In People she noted, “It kind of helps me see my future trajectory by being around so many successful women. It helps materialize the fact that I can be selling $20 million, $30 million, $40 million homes, seeing other women in close proximity to me doing it.” Chelsea will serve as a source of inspiration for many women of color as she cements her presence on the upcoming season of Selling Sunset!
