Realtor

Real estate has been woven through my life in different seasons—and each one taught me something valuable about what clients really need.

Born and raised in Texas, I was originally licensed in 1994 while living in Austin. After graduating from the University of Texas at Dallas with a degree in Economics and Finance, I moved to DFW in 1996 and worked for General Growth Properties, the commercial real estate company that built Stonebriar Mall. That experience gave me a foundation in the business side of real estate—how deals come together, what makes projects work, the importance of details and follow-through.

Then life shifted. I stepped away from the industry to become a full-time wife and mother for 25 years, raising three kids who are now adults living here in the DFW area. Those years taught me organizational skills that rival any corporate training—managing two households, keeping books, handling payroll for our ranch, volunteering as classroom mom and sports team mom, coordinating logistics for what felt like a thousand school parties and activities. Multitasking became second nature. So did genuine hospitality and the art of making people feel taken care of.

Life brought more changes—divorce, then the joy of remarriage in 2025 to a wonderful man who brought three more adult children into my world. Now we're a blended family of six grown kids, all thriving in North Texas.

I renewed my real estate license in 2022 because I missed the work and realized how much my life experience had prepared me for it in ways my younger self never could have understood. I worked in commercial property management in 2024, which sharpened my skills even more, and now I'm back where I belong—helping people navigate residential real estate with the kind of care, organization, and follow-through that comes from decades of managing complex situations and keeping everyone moving forward.

These days you'll find me in The Colony, probably planning my next trip to Cabo or the lake (I'm happiest near water), staying active (fitness enthusiast is putting it mildly), spending time with my kids, or working on my real estate investment startup.

What I bring to clients is pretty simple: I'm organized, I follow through, I handle logistics so you don't have to worry about them, and I genuinely care about making your experience as smooth as possible. After managing households, raising kids, navigating life transitions, and building businesses, real estate transactions feel like what I was made for.
