When I started selling real estate, I quickly saw it was the best decision I had made. My paralegal background made me aware of the importance of having a well written contract. My banking background gave me the basic knowledge I needed in that area. Being a visionary of what can be, has made it easy to sell land. It takes a special kind of talent to do that. I got involved in the local real estate board to learn from the core up. I had met other agents I enjoyed doing transactions with and wanted to keep those relationships. I quickly learned that real estate was not just about selling homes, it was about helping people get to the next chapter in their life. It has always been a passion of mine to make a difference in people’s lives especially in children. Dogs have a special place in my heart too. Being active on the board and representing our communities to different governing bodies allowed me to do that. I also volunteered at the local grade schools and different dog rescues. Helping others is very rewarding.
