I grew up in a town of 600 people in northern Michigan. It’s the same town my parents and grandparents were raised in, and where the majority of my family still reside.
By the time I was 19 I was done with the cold weather, so I packed up and moved to Orlando. In 1994 I graduated from the University of Central Florida with a degree in Business.
Financially independent since my teenage years, I held a variety of jobs in high school and college ranging from delivering furniture to inspecting cars at the world’s largest auto auction. Always wanting to learn more I also attended bartending school, travel agency school and obtained my real estate license in 1998.
In 2002 I made the move to Atlanta where I immediately went to work for a boutique real estate office in Midtown. Jumping into real estate in a new city was a challenge, but I proceeded to learn the city and build a list of wonderful clients. In 2012 Darcy Watts convinced me to consider Keller Williams, and I later joined in September of that year.
Being a seasoned professional in real estate with more than 20 years of experience, I find it hugely beneficial to be part of this team. I’m not out there on my own…I’ve got comradery, top agents to bounce ideas off, specialized team members that are experts in their niche, a group of people working towards the same goal, and a culture where the team cares about each other’s successes.
I pride myself on building relationships and taking care of my clients so that they continue to see me as their long-term real estate partner and friend.
When I’m not working, I’m still looking at houses. I spend my spare time browsing real estate in other countries, gardening and maintaining my beehives, and traveling.
I’m thrilled to bring my experience and the team that’s behind me to my clients. Being from a place that I’d routinely get snowed in, sometimes for weeks at a time, having a home that fits me is extremely important, and I find pleasure in bringing that same sense of security to my clients.
