As the Broker/Owner of American Premier Realty, I'm proud to lead a locally owned, independent brokerage that has been a trusted name in the community for over 20 years. Since becoming licensed in 2003, I've been committed to delivering professional, personalized service that puts my clients' needs first. I am licensed in Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Delaware, offering multi-state expertise and guidance. A lifelong resident of Harford County, Maryland, I have an in-depth understanding of the local real estate market and a true passion for serving the community I call home. Whether you're buying, selling, or investing, my goal is to make your real estate journey smooth, informed, and successful. American Premier Realty is known for being a stable, reputable brokerage with deep community ties and a strong team of dedicated professionals. We're not part of a national chain--we're your neighbors, working hard every day to support the people and places that make this region special. If you're looking for a trusted real estate expert in Harford County or the tri-state area, I'd be honored to help you take the next step with confidence.
Community Involvement
Giving back to the community has always been close to my heart. For over 14 years, I've been honored to partner with Habitat for Humanity Susquehanna, serving both as a mentor and working hands-on with their homebuilding projects. Faith also plays a central role in my life--I've had the joy of leading worship in our church for more than 20 years. I currently serve on the boards of several local foundations and, in 2024, I launched my own nonprofit, the Guardian Hearts Foundation, with a mission to support and honor our veterans. Being able to serve others, both locally and beyond, is one of the most meaningful parts of my journey.
HOBBIES/INTEREST
When I'm not working or spending time with family, I love getting outdoors and staying active. Hiking and biking are two of my favorite ways to recharge and enjoy nature. I also have a creative side and enjoy scrapbooking, preserving memories one page at a time. For something a little more adventurous, I've found a real passion for clay shooting--it keeps me focused and sharp while having a lot of fun.
FAMILY
Family is the heart of everything I do. I've been happily married for 35 years, and together we've raised a beautiful family of six children. Our family has continued to grow and bless us with 11 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren, each one bringing their own light and laughter into our lives. As part of the sandwich generation, we're also honored to care for our aging parents--something we consider both a responsibility and a privilege. Family isn't just important to us--it's our foundation, our joy, and the reason behind so much of the love and dedication we bring to every area of our lives.

Sandra was incredibly easy to work with. She listened to what I wanted, she connected me to the right lender and inspector, she honored my negotiating strategy, and supported me every step of the way during the buying process. She was incredibly responsive to my questions. I could not have found a better realtor and I will be recommending her to everyone I know.

Kiersten was incredible. She was always available day and night in case we ever had any questions. For any questions that she didnt have an answer to, she was quick to find the answer and respond to us swiftly. She was diligent, insightful, and supportive considering my wife and I were first time home buyers.

Kiersten was very hands on. We were very pleased with the job she did for us. We went through 8 contracts due to the highly competitive market and she stayed the course. She helped through process and helped us stay positive. I would highly recommend working with Kiersten.
