Realtor, Homes for Heroes Specialist, Seniors Real Estate Specialist & Financial Coach. Contact me today and let's work together.

I give back to those that give so much. I believe it's important to make a positive impact on the community that you live in. To give back and say thank you to those that truly deserve it as a real estate professional. That is why I am proud to team up with Homes for Heroes to help our local community heroes. Heroes receive money back after closing on real estate transactions and with each closing I donate to the Homes for Heroes Foundation that provides grants to Heroes in need. Homes for Heroes helps Heroes achieve their dream of homeownership.

Earning my Seniors Real Estate Specialist allows me to assist those 50+ and their families with all of your real estate needs. Whether you are looking to down size, up size to include family, sell to move into senior living or needing to sell the family home I am here to help you.
