X

I transitioned to a career as a full-time realtor in 2003 after fifteen successful years in the advertising industry as an independent photo producer.  The self-motivation I honed in my advertising work continues to serve me well in the real estate business.  I also love the spontaneity and vitality of real estate.  Every day brings new challenges and new opportunities.

Outside of work I am passionate about serving the community.  Since 2010, I have produced the annual event Fashion First which benefits Rise and Shine.  Rise and Shine is an organization that provides emotional support programs, stability, advocacy, and AIDS education for children and teens affected by HIV/AIDS.  Fashion First has brought in $200,000 over the past two years to fund the Rise and Shine summer camp program. 

I also volunteer weekly visiting Bailey Boushay house with Duke, my West Highland Terrier who is a Delta Society-certified therapy dog.
