Born and raised in Lexington, AL.  I bring over 36 years of professional experience to my real estate career. I began my career in the financial services industry, where I spent over 16 years building a strong foundation in customer service, accounting, and management.  Just over 20 years ago, I earned my real estate license, and 10 years ago I became a licensed real estate broker and purchased my own real estate company.

I have experience in residential, commercial, and lease transactions. I am both RSPS certified and an Accredited Buyer’s Representative.  I specialize in lakefront properties and second homes, providing knowledgeable guidance and trusted service to every client.

I truly enjoy meeting new people and building lasting relationships, many of which turn into lifelong friendships.  I would be honored to help you find your next home or investment property and guide you through the process with confidence and care.
