I am a licensed Realtor with over 20 years of successful experience in sales management and customer service in the mortgage and telecommunication industry. When I graduated from the University of Georgia, I was promoted to open a marketing company in NW Tampa. I moved from Athens Ga and grew roots in the Tampa Bay area. Being born into a military family, I learned to be open minded to new people and new places. I moved about 10 times while I was a child! I thank my father for being an inspiring military leader. He taught me to have discipline and to be diligent. The most important thing I learned while watching my father is service. Service to family, friends, customers, community, and country. My upbringing and experience lends well to my natural propensity for service and helping the other person and community. As a Realtor, I help my clients navigate the often-challenging waters of the home selling and buying process, with the end result being a smooth experience. When I have spare time, I spend it with my dogs and as a dog trainer. For over 20 years, I have been competing in a dog sport called Flyball. It is a lot of fun with some great people and dogs! My daughter, Carlyn Armstrong, is my real estate partner and a dog fan as well. We work as a team with the Haven Home Group, Century 21, Beggins. Not only do we enjoy working with sellers and with buyers, but we also donate to help our four-legged friends. Proceeds from each home transaction goes to support and ensure safe havens for dogs, so they won't be hungry or homeless. The clients have the alternative to pick appropriation. Haven Home Group is serving the community by helping people sell or find their next home and by protecting animals. "We realize that we can't change the world for everybody but selling a home and finding the right property can change someone's world and we consider that a great privilege."
