Growing up, I had wanted to be a counselor, but I ended up being a full-charge bookkeeper for over 10 years. I'm no stranger to filling out forms, analyzing data, deadlines, checking things twice and getting things "right."  I was recruited to be in agent in late 1999 (got my license in Feb 2000) and I haven't looked back! For me, real estate is the perfect combination of bookkeeping, counseling and teaching (I was also a 4-H leader when my kids were growing up). I try to make the process as fun as possible, while not taking things lightly; this is, after all, probably one of the biggest financial decisions of your life! I am compassionate, patient and know that not all real estate transactions come about because of happy news, but even then, I do my best to find the silver lining and help my clients move forward to the next phase in their lives. I have been awarded "5-Stars in Client Satisfaction" 14 times since 2008 and I look forward to providing you with that same level of service.
