I transitioned into real estate after a successful career in Retail as an Associate Director of Merchandising for a large ecommerce retailer. While I loved working in the Retail Industry, I was ready for a change into something different where I was helping people directly (vs indirectly in my previous career). Having strong work ethic, and working 50+ hours a week, I knew working for myself would be something I inherently loved.

Its pretty cliche but I read the book “Rich Dad Poor Dad” By Robert Kiyosaki and wanted to get into real estate as an investor because of that book. While still at my corporate job, I studied to get my real estate license AND found the first investment property my husband and I would purchase – it was also my first transaction as an agent! I was hooked, and wanted to help others buy investment properties.

While I love helping people buy/sell investment properties, I also love helping people find their next home as well. I think its important to be diversified and be able to help in multiple facets of someone’s life. I work hard for my clients, and meet them where they are. Everyone is in different places in their life, and real estate journeys so my job is to understand their wants, needs, and help them get there through my work. From first time buyers, to wanting a 3rd vacation home, to buying their 7th investment. I am constantly reading their body language when in a home, and asking questions to make sure we are on the same page.

My clients love that- I am not just settling for what they say but really getting to the root of their needs and reaffirming what they want or don’t want. There’s no fluff or BS – we are working towards a goal and I am happy to navigate, but I wont just sell the pretty picture. And a lot of people will.. but it’s imperative to give the real deal, and sometimes the story isn’t great but needs to be told.
