I’ve been in the real estate industry in some way or another for almost 20 years. I started out working in the litigation department of a lender where I got to see the many mistakes made by lenders and title companies in the late 90s and early 2000s. After that I moved on to work for a title company, then several real estate attorneys before running a title company myself. And now I’m a real estate agent!

I bought my first home at 19 years old! And have since bought and sold several of my own properties, as well as investment properties. I’ve purchased properties through the MLS, from a builder, and both foreclosure and tax deed auctions. I have a wealth of knowledge so feel free to reach out and let me know how I can help you!
