For me, the concept of home is grounded in faith and family. My roots in southeast Iowa run deep as growing up on a small farm instilled in me the values of hard work and resilience. I bring this same dedication to my real estate career after 34 years in education. As the former lead principal at Burlington High School, I learned to navigate complex situations with grace and remain calm under pressure. I now apply that steady leadership to guide buyers and sellers through their own important transitions.
I am a passionate advocate for the Burlington area and actively invest in the community through service on numerous boards including Downtown Partners and the SEIRMC Hospital Auxiliary. I approach real estate as a relationship business rather than a transactional one. I thrive on the details and take pride in managing the logistics so my clients can relax.
Whether assisting a first time buyer or helping a senior transition to a new stage of life, I lead with empathy and confidentiality. I understand that housing changes are often tied to life changes and I am committed to being a trusted partner through every step of the journey.
When I am not serving clients, I prioritize family time with my three daughters and six grandchildren. I enjoy organizing and staying active outdoors whether I am playing golf or cheering on a football team.
