Buying a home is a big step, and the key is to start smart. My best advice is to get pre-approved first. Knowing your budget helps narrow your search and puts you in a stronger position when it's time to make an offer. Work with a local real estate agent who understands the market and can guide you through everything from writing a competitive offer to navigating inspections and negotiations. Don’t just shop for a house—take time to explore neighborhoods and consider your lifestyle needs. And most importantly, be patient and trust the process. With the right support, you'll be ready to make a confident decision when the right home comes along.

Start by understanding your local market and setting a realistic price based on current data, not just emotion or outdated comps. First impressions matter, so take time to prepare your home. That may include decluttering, fresh paint, minor repairs, and professional staging or photography. Hire an experienced real estate agent who knows how to position your home strategically, market it across multiple platforms, and negotiate effectively. Also, be flexible with showings and open to feedback. The goal is to create a situation where buyers can clearly see the value and feel confident moving forward. A well-prepared home priced right will attract strong interest and better offers.

I’ve had the privilege of working with a wide range of clients at different stages of life. This includes first-time homebuyers, move-up buyers, growing families, homeowners downsizing or relocating, and renters ready to become owners. I also work with sellers looking to maximize their equity, clients building or purchasing new construction homes, and investors exploring residential or income-generating opportunities. In addition to residential real estate, I’ve represented clients in commercial transactions and farm & ranch properties, helping them navigate unique contract terms, land use considerations, and financing structures. No matter the situation, I provide customized guidance and a clear strategy tailored to each client’s goals.

One recent transaction that stands out involved helping a family sell their longtime home in Richmond so they could move closer to grandchildren. Their home had strong potential, but it needed the right strategy to stand out. We took time to prep the property, updated key features, and positioned it effectively with professional marketing. It paid off—we received multiple offers in just a few days and secured a sale above asking price. What made this transaction special wasn’t just the numbers. It was helping my clients transition to the next chapter of their lives with confidence and peace of mind. That’s what makes this work so rewarding.

My journey into real estate started with a passion for helping people and a background in hospitality and business. After earning my MBA and spending years managing teams and client relationships, I realized that real estate brought together everything I loved: building trust, solving problems, and guiding people through meaningful life decisions. I wanted to be the kind of agent who not only knew the market but also made the process feel less stressful and more personal. That led me to earn my real estate license, and since then, I’ve been helping clients across Greater Houston, Fort Bend County, and beyond buy and sell with confidence.

Yes, I bring a unique blend of education, professional training, and real-world experience that directly benefits my clients. I hold a degree in Hospitality from the University of Tennessee and an MBA from LSU, which helps me combine service-first thinking with strategic business insight. In addition to being a licensed real estate agent, I’m also a licensed Mortgage Loan Originator (MLO). That dual licensing allows me to guide clients not only through the home buying and selling process, but also through the financing side helping them better understand their loan options, stay ahead of deadlines, and make informed financial decisions every step of the way. Whether you're buying your first home or selling and moving up, this comprehensive perspective can save time, reduce stress, and create a much smoother experience overall.
