I was born and raised in Asheville, and while I left for a time to work throughout the country, I always longed to return to these mountains. I joined the Beverly Hanks team in 2005 and I am grateful for the awards I have received. I sold over $12 million worth of real estate in 2016 alone. My degree is from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill where also I earned All-American status for competitive swimming. I belong to the French Broad River Garden Club (GCA), and I am a member of Trinity Episcopal Church and am a Board member for The Biltmore Forest Country Club. My sons, both Eagle scouts, also attended Carolina Day School and Christ School . My husband, John, is a local attorney who grew up outside Bucks County, PA and attended UPenn.
