Professional and Personal Philosophy My philosophy in business as well as in life is that each new day is a gift, offering new challenges and opportunities. I look forward to doing the best job I possibly can, whether for a client or for a family member or friend. I will go out of my way to treat people as I would like to be treated, and if given the opportunity, I would love to do the same for you! To me, real estate is about people and relationships. Buying or selling a home can be a stressful, uncertain time in life, and my goal is to make the experience as pleasant and stress-free for my clients as I possibly can!

Professional Experience Before obtaining my Real Estate License, I worked for many years with elementary school-age children, helping them to deal with school adjustment issues. This was an extremely rewarding position, and unfortunately, due to state budget cuts, the program I worked in was eliminated. In 2002, I entered the arena of Real Estate, first with a Title company and then as a sales coordinator for a new homes development. Now that I am a licensed real estate agent, I am truly enjoying the challenge of helping my clients find a place where they feel completely "at home".
