After 25 years in education and doing real estate on the side, I finally retired from teaching and made real estate my career. Knowing my goals were shifting, I got my license almost 7 years ago. Real estate satisfies my passion for helping others. I’m excited to find my clients’ perfect home in my beautiful home state. I’ve lived here my whole life, and I am very knowledgeable about the area and current market.
As a life-long learner, it was inevitable that I continued to study and I earned my ABR & SRS designations, as well as my REI, SFR, MRP certifications. My MRP -military relocation professional certificate- is very important to me. I’m the wife of a veteran and helping military families is something we’ve strived to do for many years. My real estate career has opened more doors (pun intended) to help those who have done so much for us.
Real estate is a great fit for me as I am extremely hardworking, honest, efficient, organized and…I am not happy until my clients are happy! I also love my doggie fur babies and helping people find fun places to explore with their doggos. Check out my blog: #dogfriendlyrealtorpbc
