Know your numbers. Know your non-negotiables. And most importantly, know your why — because buying a home is more than a transaction; it’s a decision that affects your lifestyle, finances, and future. Work with a Realtor® who doesn’t just open doors but helps you think strategically — someone who’ll help you win the house and the terms. In this market, preparation beats impulse. Get pre-approved, get educated, and get ready to act decisively when the right home hits. Buying a home doesn’t have to be stressful — it just has to be intentional.

Price it right. Present it well. Negotiate like a pro — or hire someone who will. Too many sellers focus only on what they want to make instead of what the market will support. The truth is: your first impression is your strongest leverage. The longer a home sits, the less power you have. So don’t just list — launch it strategically. That means professional marketing, smart pricing, and someone who knows how to create urgency and filter out tire-kickers. You only get one shot at that perfect buyer. Make sure your home is positioned to capture them.

I’ve worked with a wide range of clients — from first-time homebuyers trying to make sense of the process, to seasoned investors building wealth through multifamily and commercial real estate. I've helped families upgrade into their dream homes, guided sellers through complex transactions, and supported out-of-state clients who needed boots on the ground. I also work with clients using VA, FHA, and conventional financing, as well as those purchasing with cash or through 1031 exchanges. Whether it’s residential or commercial, a $150K condo or a $3M portfolio — I bring the same level of care, clarity, and strategy to every deal.

One of my favorite transactions involved a client who needed to sell their current home and buy their dream home — all at the same time. That’s a high-stakes balancing act, and it requires tight coordination, constant communication, and a clear game plan. We started by getting their home market-ready and under contract quickly, while simultaneously identifying their dream home and negotiating terms that gave us the flexibility to align both closings. There were a few curveballs — there always are — but we stayed ahead of them by staying proactive, not reactive. In the end, they sold their house at a strong price, closed on their dream home without having to move twice, and walked away with peace of mind. It’s the kind of win that reminds me why I do this — not just to close deals, but to create smooth transitions for big life changes.

I got started in real estate because I didn’t want to go into debt for my wedding. At the time, I was working full-time and decided to sell real estate on the side to earn extra income. It started as a hustle — but it didn’t take long for me to realize I had a passion for it. I’ve always loved talking with people, building relationships, and connecting dots in my network. Real estate gave me a way to turn that into something meaningful — helping people make smart moves, build wealth, and create freedom. What began as a short-term solution quickly became a long-term calling. I never looked back.

Yes. I hold a BS in Agricultural Business from LSU and an MBA in Marketing from the University of North Texas — which means I understand both the numbers and the strategy behind every transaction. I’m also e-PRO® certified, which means I stay current on technology and digital marketing trends that help my clients' listings stand out and attract serious buyers. On top of that, I’m a licensed Broker and a seasoned real estate investor, which gives me a broader perspective — especially when it comes to pricing, negotiation, and long-term financial impact. Whether you're buying, selling, or investing, I bring a level of education, training, and experience that helps you move with confidence.
