Real estate isn’t just what I do—it’s a lifestyle I’ve lived. I am passionate about helping people live and work where they vacation.
More than 20 years ago, I moved from Michigan to Florida looking for warm, sunny weather every day. Not just one week a year while on vacation. I wasn’t a real estate agent then. I was simply looking for a lifestyle that felt like living every day instead of waiting. With the help of a great agent, I bought a new construction home… the same home I still live in today in Wesley Chapel, Florida. Now I live and work where I once vacationed. And I don’t have to shovel the sunshine.
Today, I bring over 40 years of business experience from a global IT company to my real estate career. My skills include leadership, sales, marketing, and project management. I am an active member of the Florida CCIM Chapter West Coast District, where education and networking are the cornerstones of a successful career, and pursuing the Certified Commercial Investment Member (CCIM) designation. Also, an active member of Commercial Real Estate for Women (CREW) Tampa Bay Chapter serving as the Programs Committee Chair (2026, 2025), recipient of the 2024 Rising Star Award, finalist for the Heart and Soul Award, and volunteer for multiple committees. CREW Tampa Bay is part of the CREW Network – a global organization of more than 14,000 members in 80 markets worldwide.
I’m a licensed residential and commercial real estate agent serving Florida, with a strong focus on Pasco County, where I’ve lived since 2004. I’ve watched this area grow into one of the fastest-growing regions in the state. Florida real estate is attracting families, businesses, and investors from around the world.
On the residential side, I specialize in new construction homes in master-planned communities like the Angeline Community. The community of Angeline is 6,200 acres. It’s a city in the making that is designed around lifestyle, not just homes. Angeline and other master-planned communities include residential, commercial, and recreational amenities. As a New Home Co-Broker, I work for you, partnering with the builders’ sales consultants to help you find the right home in a community with a lifestyle that’s right for you.
On the commercial side, I help business owners and investors lease or purchase industrial, office, and medical office space that supports their growth and investment goals.
Are you thinking about relocating to Florida? If you are considering buying a new construction home or growing your business here, I don’t just help you buy or lease property. I help you find a lifestyle that’s right for you.
I’d be honored to help you make Florida your new home where you can live and work where you vacation. Contact me today. Don’t wait.
