I've been a licensed, real estate sales associate and Realtor with Keller Williams Realty, the Platinum office., primarily working throughout the Oklahoma City metropolitan area, since January of 2008. I constantly improve my skills by attending many educational opportunities here in Oklahoma and across the nation. Up until May of 2013, I was a middle school science teacher, at which time I decided to walk away to focus completely on assisting people find their ideal home, or assist the home seller get the best price for their home. I grew up in Altus, Oklahoma, where my father retired from the Air Force after serving 21 years. I graduated high school from Altus in 1984, received my bachelor's degree in biology from Southwestern Oklahoma State University in Dec. of 1988, and a master's degree in school administration from the University of Central Oklahoma in May of 2003. Prior to becoming a school teacher, I worked as an environmental chemist for three separate companies, from May 1989 to May 1992, performing analyses on air, water, and soil samples for local and regional industries testing for various pollutants. I am dedicated to providing unwavering service to those who expect nothing less to meet their home buying or home selling needs.
