Be patient! Buying a home is one of the biggest transactions of your life, and it’s worth taking the time to find the right one. Make sure you’re prepared from the start—have your pre-approval ready, know your must-haves, nice-to-haves, and where you’re willing to be flexible. That way, when we find “the one,” we can move quickly and confidently with an offer.

Preparation and pricing are everything! Buyers form their first impression within seconds, so make it count. Declutter, deep clean, depersonalize, and handle those little fixes you’ve been putting off. Even small, inexpensive touches can make a big impact. And when it comes to price—starting high “just to see” often hurts your listing in the long run. Price it right from day one for the best results.

I’ve had the privilege of working with first-time buyers, Veterans, vacation and second-home buyers, retirees, downsizers, commercial and land buyers, and sellers of everything from cozy homes to sprawling acreage. Every client’s needs are unique, and I love tailoring the process to fit them perfectly.

One that really stood out was helping a family sell their father’s home. It was in the same neighborhood I grew up in—and it happened to be the home of my childhood best friend’s grandparents. It was a full-circle moment for me, filled with great conversations, shared memories, and the privilege of guiding them through an important sale.

I’ve always worked in customer service, but I wanted to do something bigger—something that could truly change lives. Real estate can be confusing and overwhelming, and I love making the process smooth and seamless for both buyers and sellers. I chose to partner with RE/MAX Preferred because of their unmatched networking power, vast resources, and strong marketing reach, all of which help my support my clients and provide great service.

I hold both the ABR® (Accredited Buyer’s Representative) and PSA® (Pricing Strategy Advisor) certifications, giving my clients a competitive edge whether buying or selling. I also use tools like CubiCasa to create professional floor plans, and I work with skilled photographers and videographers to produce stunning photos, videos, and 3D virtual tours. It’s all about presenting properties in the best possible light and making the process as smooth as possible.
