The friendly people, beautiful landscapes, and a temperate climate make Asheville and the surrounding areas a great place to live. As an outdoor enthusiast and a person who believes in the importance of community engagement, Western North Carolina is a place I will forever call home. In 2017, I decided to turn my desire to build long-lasting relationships and my belief in the value of home ownership into a career in real estate. At the core of my approach is a commitment to listening to clients and applying my knowledge of the market to help them achieve their goals. I am dedicated to communicating clearly throughout the process and serving my clients' needs. Whether you are buying or selling a primary residence, a second home, or an investment property, I can help you successfully navigate the transaction. A North Carolina native, I earned my bachelor's degree from Belmont Abbey College and master's degree from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. I spent the first 20 years of my career in the nonprofit sector, and continue to support local nonprofits through an active volunteer life. I have served on the board for Mountain Area Residential Facilities (MARF) and Food Connection. I have fostered over 30 shelter pets and adopted a few of my own. When I am not working or volunteering, you can find me exploring Western North Carolina's outdoor wonders and culinary experience.
