More About Me

I have the greatest “job” in the world!

My passion for the real estate industry and my care and concern for my clients show in everything that I do. As a result, my business is now primarily based upon referrals from past clients - - - the sincerest form of compliment.

Whether consulting with Home Sellers to most effectively market and sell their unique homes or helping Home Buyers learn all about our beautiful Suncoast and to find the best neighborhood and home for them - - - it is certainly not work. It is a pleasure!
