As a marketing professional with over 30 years of sales/marketing experience (6 of those years as a successful Realtor), I love employing these hard-earned skills to help my customers find their dream home or sell their most valuable asset.
Selling: I utilize targeted social media and other more traditional marketing channels to expose your home to the widest possible market. I always use professional photography, an interactive virtual tour and staging to showcase your home to its best advantage. As a result most of my listings sell quickly, for a fair price.
Home Buying: Partnering with you to find your perfect home can be a journey which requires perseverance, preparation, and-most importantly-listening closely and responding to your needs. I love working with buyers; its an incredibly rewarding and humbling experience to help my clients find the home of their dreams.
Closing: The selling/buying process doesnt just end once an offer is written and accepted though. As your agent I use my time-honed negotiating skills to secure the best possible deal for you, constantly communicate with you concerning next steps, advise you along the way should concerns arise and also work closely with all the other parties involved in the transaction (lender, title company, etc.) to ensure a smooth transaction. My job as your agent is to make the home selling or buying experience as fulfilling, profitable and stress-free for you as possible.

Real estate is my second career; I feel incredibly blessed to be able to work in such a fascinating field.. Before becoming a Realtor, I was a sales representative in the college textbook industry, mostly with McGraw-Hill Publishing Company.
My husband Bob and I have lived in the area for over 20 years, moving here from Linden, MI. What a great place this has been to raise our family! We both grew up, went to college and have worked in different parts of the country-me in Ohio, Iowa and Georgia and Bob on the East Coast-and we simply love living here! Bob manages an engineering group for General Motors. Our oldest son is a graduate of the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor and is currently working in Manhattan, and our youngest son just graduated from Michigan Tech with his degree in Computer Engineering.
In my downtime I love to hang out with my family and friends, read, run, travel or play a quick nine holes of golf with my husband.
