She is also not afraid to speak her mind to the other women of the Oppenheim Group. So what else do we know about her?

The British-Nigerian real estate agent grew up in London and did her undergraduate work in economics at the University of Birmingham, England. According to her Oppenheim Group profile (opens in new tab), her mother works as a corporate executive, inspiring Razkani "to see what is possible in her life." Her father is an architect and developer, and she grew up learning about real estate.

Before entering the real estate industry, Razkani worked as a business strategist and solar analyst for companies in the oil and gas industry. She even earned a master's degree in international oil and gas management from the University of Dundee in Scotland.

The 29-year-old entered the real estate world in 2017, earning her license that year and joining Rodeo Realty in LA. The luxury agency has another celebrity realtor alumna, as Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles cast member Josh Flagg once worked there.

Regarding her relationship with her new colleagues, the realtor told People (opens in new tab) that she had no prior connection with the performers, adding that she became friends with Christine and Emma after joining the show.

Razkani has been married to husband Jeff Razkani since 2017, and the couple shares two toddlers, Maddox and Melia.

In an interview with People (opens in new tab), Lazkani shared that she saw the show as an opportunity to open doors for the white-dominated luxury real estate industry. She said, "I feel that with great opportunity comes great responsibility." This was my time to give back, to educate, mentor, and advance black women in this luxury real estate sector. So just knowing that I have a greater purpose is like being ready for this."

In an interview with Tudum (open in new tab), she elaborated that she wants to be the kind of role model in the real estate industry that she sought when she started. She said, "My main goal is to inspire other women, to provide access to other women, to support other black women (as I did) and help them live their best lives. That goes for anything I do, not just real estate," she said. [Representation is very important. When I decided to get my license, I was looking for someone who was very active in the real estate industry. I found a lot of role models, but no black girls. I thought, 'Damn, that sucks. When you don't have a role model, you become a role model.

In an interview with Tudum (opens in new tab), Razkani opened up about her colorful fashion style. She said, "Fashion has always been my creative outlet, but above all, it's really about redefining what it means to be a boss lady and not have to wear tailored black pants and shirts." [You can be intelligent, you can be smart, you can be quirky, you can be colorful and a little revealing. It doesn't detract from your professionalism or how great you are at what you do. I just want to show people that you can go out in your own fashion and wear whatever you want," she added.

Razkani has been active on Twitter throughout the Season 5 premiere weekend, responding to fan feedback with replies and her own tweets. She posted lighthearted responses to a topic about her accent (opens in new tab), which fans said was not traditionally British. Some even compared it to Ana Delvey's accent in another Netflix hit (opens in new tab) and accused her of being fake. Razkani got caught up in the joke, but admitted that she would never look at "The Invention of Anna" the same way again.

In an interview with TODAY (opens in new tab), the realtor explained that her transatlantic upbringing might explain the accent. 'I'm really secular. I've lived in London, Switzerland, New York, New Jersey, and now Los Angeles.

Razkani also admitted that she sometimes forgets she has an accent and is reminded of it in her interactions with people. 'I'm very opinionated,' he said. So sometimes I just slur my words. You're British. Sometimes I think I've lost my accent. It's only when I'm reminded that I have an accent that I'm a little surprised.
