The luckiest people in the world are those who love their work, and that fits me to a "T." I never tire of meeting new people, exploring homes and vacant land, searching for just the right property for a client, and overcoming the hurdles that can appear during a real estate transaction.  

I enjoy the variety that a career in real estate affords and eagerly dive in to learning new skills – whether it's new technology or how best to serve my clients. 

When not serving clients, I enjoy spending time with family and close friends. 
A resident of the Des Moines area for 23 years, I feel fortunate to be raising my children in a country / outdoor lifestyle. My faithful dog, outdoor cats & chickens play a role in my daily life – providing the whole family with exercise and laughter.  

Before choosing a career in real estate, I worked as an recreation therapy assistant with our nations heroes at our local VA hospital, as well as an emergency room technician at Mercy Hospital.  

I have valuable experience in real estate, and vast knowledge of the Des Moines area, all so that I may help you find the home of your dreams.  

I enjoy using technology both to communicate well and to expose my listings to home seekers all over the Internet. Iowa Realty has an award winning marketing department, and I use it to full advantage for my seller clients.
