I am a dedicated mother, a former mortgage loan processor, a Realtor, and a proud real estate broker owner. My passion extends beyond my profession into my community, where I actively volunteer. I am an avid podcast listener and cherish being a good friend. I take great pleasure in managing and training successful agents in my own brokerage. I love listening to motivational audiobooks, and exploring the growth and historical value of Jacksonville, my beloved city.
About Me
Residing in Jacksonville, Florida, with my children, I am a broker owner of a boutique real estate brokerage. My specialty lies in mentoring new agents, equipping them with the skills to thrive in any market conditions. I take pride in serving diverse clients, including first-time homebuyers, military and retirement relocations, new construction, and sellers in various situations. Beyond real estate, I am passionate about discipleship and sharing personal testimonies of God's faithfulness to inspire hope and transformation in others. In my free time, I am dedicated to empowering individuals to share their stories, spreading God's Word, and witnessing the impact of Jesus' love. I find joy in hearing the stories of struggle and triumph from the families I work with, and I consider it a privilege to be a part of their journeys.
ABOUT THE BROKERAGE
LEGACY BRIDGE REALTY is committed to providing great customer service, consistent communication, and strong attention to detail, and ensuring a positive experience for all parties involved in each transaction. We fervently believe in the process and the dream of home ownership. We understand what is needed to communicate effectively with lenders, appraisers, title companies, inspectors, and attorneys and what it takes to successfully close a transaction, making the buying or selling experience positive and seamless. To us, it is as much about the relationship we build with our clients as it is about the real estate transaction. This means we strongly believe in our duty to represent our clients well, to educate them throughout every step of the process, and to arm them with the most relevant information and market insight. This ensures that they are equipped to make the best decisions possible for their family and their future. We embody honesty, integrity, and trust in every detail of the real estate transaction.
MY STORY
In 1998, when I was 15 years old, my family moved from Port au Prince, Haiti to the United States. I attended UNF and graduated with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration in 2010. After graduating, I spent 15 years working in the mortgage industry, during which time I helped nearly 3,000 families with financing purchases and refinances of their homes. In 2017, I began my real estate career, driven by a desire to establish my own financial independence and help others do the same. Having purchased and sold many different homes, from historic to new builds, I am a strong believer in the American Dream of home ownership. I am honored to work enthusiastically on behalf of my clients and delighted to be their forever agent.
Since 2017, I have made it my mission to be an expert in all areas of Jacksonville. I am familiar with the up-and-coming areas of town and many new construction sites. I specialize in first-time home ownership, assisting people with credit restoration needs, and helping clients understand the crucial role home ownership plays in building generational wealth and a lasting family legacy. I also focus on referrals from colleagues and real estate investment properties.
I am motivated to help people find their perfect home and ensure the experience is as positive as possible and I am passionate about empowering families to build long-term financial success through home ownership. Let me help you find your perfect home and contribute to building your family's legacy!
