I am a Gainesville native who attended P.K. Yonge and Santa Fe College before getting my bachelor's degree in Professional and Technical Writing from the University of South Florida in Tampa. I also earned my Paralegal degree and formerly worked as a counselor and motivational speaker. After graduation, I enjoyed living in different parts of Florida before returning to Gainesville in 1999. A passion for Real Estate and for helping others motivated me to get my Real Estate license. With my background in counseling and extensive local knowledge, I help both first time and veteran home buyers find the perfect home and negotiate the best value. And I guide sellers to the closing table with the utmost care. My goal is to lead a successful career that enables me to give back to this incredible community.
