I love working with people!

I moved to Florida 20 years ago from Ohio. (O-H-I-O!) I am so thankful to live in such a beautiful place with so many wonderful things to do! Coming from the snowbelt in the Akron-Cleveland area makes me appreciate the sun even more and I have never looked back!

Growing up in the Midwest, I learned hardworking values and I actually bought my first home from a Coldwell Banker Agent when I was 19 with money I saved from delivering Newspapers and babysitting!

I worked at the Regional Office of Allstate Insurance for 13 years and handled the Complaints. I was selected to serve on the Hurricane Andrew Catastrophe Team with taught me PEOPLE SKILLS and PATIENCE. After seeing such devastation, I wanted to help people.

I decided to serve for 10 years as a YOUTH for Christ Director for 10 years. Working with troubled teens was extremely difficult at times but it was so rewarding! I definitely had to develop my PATIENCE, LISTENING SKILLS and the DESIRE TO NEVER give up!

I have brought of all of these skills into my Real Estate Business! I have been a FULL_TIME Realtor for 15 years specializing in Lakewood Ranch, Sarasota, and Bradenton. I have also sold Beach homes on Anna Maria Island, Siesta Key and Lido Key!

I would love the opportunity to help you sell your home or find the perfect home in paradise!
