Born in Florida and raised in the triad area of North Carolina, I was the youngest of five children and always had to compete for everything. I learned to work hard and take care of myself at an early age. In high school I became a member of the Future Business Leaders of America. Before graduation I worked as an administrative assistant at First Factors Corporation. My career in Finance took off from there, I continued my education by taking various courses through Dun & Bradstreet and related seminars. I was promoted to Credit Manager responsible for the establishment and maintenance of various companies’ credit policies. I worked in this field for many years; my last position was with VF Corporation, the largest apparel company in the United States.
I moved to East Tennessee in 2002 with my family and fell in love with the beautiful, clean lakes and the quiet charm of the surrounding countryside. There was so much to do there and so many lifestyles to choose from. I made many new friends and convinced old friends to join us. I always had an interest in real estate and true to my work ethic; I jumped in with both feet. I received my real estate license in 2003 and went to work for a local firm. I quickly discovered what people really wanted from their agent and found that people really responded to the truth. I have always been honest to the point that many have said I was too honest for my own good.
My husband was transferred back to North Carolina in early 2010, which allowed me to be closer to family and the opportunity to explore a new adventure. We could have lived in many areas within his sales territory, but I discovered the Lake Norman area and knew instantly it was a perfect fit for me and the lake life which I love so much. I decided to join Lake Norman Realty - after our first meeting I felt very comfortable with the agency and knew it was where I belonged.
I believe that people are looking for a lifestyle when they are searching for their dream home, so I listen closely to their requests and match the property to their dreams. I know what an emotional experience they are going through, so I do all I can to make their move as stress-free as possible. I am always available for them, especially after the sale. Whether their need is for a repairman or a good local restaurant, they know they can call me anytime!
My work ethic is also why they call when they are ready to sell their properties. They know I will work to get them the best price. I will market their homes in local real estate sources as well as over the Internet, using all the tools now available to find buyers and get their property sold!
