About Me

I have represented buyers and sellers throughout West Michigan and the Lakeshore area and have lived and worked here in Holland since relocating from Chicago 21 years ago. I feel strongly that the real estate process is not just business, but a very personal experience: Getting to know my clients has been the key to successfully finding them a home they love or selling their home with the desired results that matters most to them. 

Having worked in management, customer service and sales,  I recognize the importance that research, communication and flexibility have in properly guiding you through one of the most personal & financially important decisions in your life. I look forward to working with you. You can trust and have confidence that I am 100% committed to your success!

Personal Background

Originally born in Baltimore, MD, I grew up in the western suburbs of Chicago and later attended the University of Iowa. Following graduation, I lived and worked in the Chicago area. I went on to be awarded a Graduate Assistantship and completed my Master's degree in Training and Development at Loyola University of Chicago.

My husband and I lived in Rogers Park, an amazing Chicago neighborhood. Our condo overlooked Lake Michigan, which allowed us daily access to all that living on the Lakeshore had to offer. Between our lakefront living experience and traveling frequently to visit family in South Haven, MI, it became clear to us that our future would be in Michigan along the Lakeshore area. We moved to Holland 21 years ago, had our son here, and have truly enjoyed becoming part of this community. Although we still enjoy traveling back to the city, we live, work and play in Holland and surrounding areas.
