Hello and thank you for taking your time to learn a little bit about who I am as a person and as a Realtor.
We can start with my history to see where I come from and that will lead us to who I am today. I am first a wife of 30+ years and mom to 9 beautiful people who make my world a happy one. I have, so far, 3 granddaughters who put an added sparkle in my eye. My husband, Dana, retired from the US Navy and that has allowed us to live in Charleston, SC; Kittery ME; Virginia Beach VA; Newport News, VA; Ballston Spa, NY; Dededo Guam and we have settled here in King George, VA. I find myself quite the authority of moving, especially with kids, and I know the good, the bad and the ugly.
One key thing about me is that I love people. I love meeting people, talking to people, learning from people, but mostly I love helping people. It is just who I am. I invest in people. When I first got into real estate someone explained that I am not a salesperson, I provide a service and help people and that is what helped me take off! I can’t sell ice in a blizzard, but I can listen and understand who you are and what you want and be there every step of the way to get you into the home of your dreams or help you to sell yours.
I have earned my MRP (Military Relocation Professional) certification, my SRS (Seller Representative Specialist) certification and my ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative) certification and I continue to take classes and attend seminars to ensure that I am always learning and keeping up with the industry.
I am a 2019 Graduate of the Virginia Leadership Academy through the Virginia Association of Realtors.
I will be the FAAR (Fredericksburg Area Association of Realtors) President for 2023 and I serve on other committees to further the education and professionalism of all our local Realtors.
Education is extremely important to me and I strive to always be up to date on current laws, contract changes and trends in the current real estate market.
