About Me

Whether you are Buying or Selling a Home, I will be with you every step of the way!
Having relocated from the Philadelphia area in 2016, I am experienced with the relocation process.
Since 2014 I have worked in New Home Construction sales. Guiding 350+ families find their perfect fit, the next natural step was to help both Sellers and Buyers.
I felt at home in Raleigh-Durham the moment I arrived and instantly fell in love with it. You probably fell in love with this place pretty quickly too—if you are like 50% of us and came from somewhere else—and now it’s time to put down some roots and stay a while.
I will Navigate you through the Triangle to help you find the Home you’ve always dreamed of by focusing our strategy on your individual style, needs, and budget. Whether you are looking for your first home, or a lifestyle change. I can’t wait to guide you! I enjoy keeping up with the latest restaurants, shopping, and events that make each neighborhood unique.
When I am not working with Buyers and Sellers I love cooking, gardening, traveling, design (both home and fashion) and architecture.
