I am a dedicated full-time REALTOR, committed to making the home buying and selling process seamless by expertly managing the details of my clients' real estate transactions. My goal is to support you throughout the sale or purchase process, allowing you to focus on what matters most.

With extensive knowledge of North Carolina real estate contracts and newest requirements—having served as the 2010-2011 Chairperson of the NC Realtors Form Committee—I prioritize my clients’ best interests in every negotiation. Did you know there can be multiple negotiation points during a transaction? I’m here to navigate those complexities for you.

Having relocated several times across the Midwest (Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Ohio, and Kansas) before settling in North Carolina 33 years ago, I understand the challenges of moving, especially with children. My own experiences, not always smooth, inspired me to become a REALTOR. I want to ensure you have the support you need every step of the way.

From our initial meeting to contract negotiations and closing, I’ll be your trusted guide. I aim to be your go-to real estate consultant whenever you need assistance.

Let me handle the details of your next real estate transaction.

I look forward to setting up a private meeting at your convenience—available evenings and weekends by appointment.

Distinctions


 

Born and raised in Illinois, I grew up in a close-knit community where I knew my neighbors, church members, and school friends from kindergarten through high school. After graduating from Drake University and marrying my college sweetheart, my life changed as we relocated throughout the Midwest—living in the Illinois suburbs, Des Moines, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, and Kansas City. These moves taught me the importance of getting involved in each community.

Initially, I engaged with my kids' schools through the PTA and Governance Council. As an active parent, I spent countless hours driving to swim meets, lacrosse games, and soccer tournaments, which helped me navigate and connect with each new area.

After a career in retail merchandising, my family’s relocations inspired me to shift my focus to volunteering. I supported local schools, hospitals, sports teams, community museums, and fundraising efforts, building valuable connections along the way. As a member of Delta Gamma, I relied on these relationships to further integrate into each community.

These experiences ultimately led me to real estate. I understand how challenging relocation can be, and am passionate about helping others navigate the process smoothly.

Let me HANDLE the DETAILS of your next real estate transaction.
