My business is all about my clients; helping them and exceeding their expectations is what drives me to always be better at what I do. With a Bachelors in Social Work from Illinois State University and a background in social work, I spent fourteen years communicating and advocating on behalf of others. When I switched careers, I knew I wanted to maintain that special connection with people. I understand human behavior and I recognize what a huge decision buying or selling a home is, not only financial but also emotional. Real estate is a relationship business and I take that very seriously. I oversee all parts of the transaction for my clients, going above and beyond to make sure they feel taken care of. I once helped a client who had recently lost her husband sell her home before it even hit the market. Being able to assist her through that hardship and knowing I helped make a difference to minimize her stress and heartache was one of my proudest moments. I have been visiting Tucson since 2000 and finally made the move here from Normal, IL in 2012. The beautiful mountain backdrop and the kind residents of where I live is what drew me in and have made me so happy to call this place home ever since. I have had the pleasure of working with so many wonderful clients in this business and I am grateful every day that I get the opportunity to continue doing so. I am always working on strengthening my real estate skills; I enjoy reading books related to the industry and gaining even more knowledge about real estate. I balance my love for work with a great love for my family and I enjoy spending quality time with them. I know how important it is to listen, interpret, advocate and negotiate for my clients. I am a nurturer by nature, I put others first and have an extremely strong work ethic. The most important part of my job is knowing my clients always feel like they have someone in their corner during their home buying or selling experience. Call me today if I can help you in any way with your process, even if you just have a few questions; I'm here for you.
