I feel fortunate to say that I have been a Raleigh native for over 17 years. The Triangle is such an amazing place to live! Growing up in the military, this is the longest that I have lived anywhere. The Triangle offers a wealth of variety when it comes to real estate. Are you looking for country comfort, sleek living, family life, eco friendly? The Triangle has it all! Originally from Georgia, I grew up in Myrtle Beach, SC, attended high school in Hawaii, and received my Bachelor's from Michigan State University. Besides real estate, I have a background in business with focus in supply chain and business management. All of my career experience has guided me to be customer focused, detail oriented, and relationship driven. If you are looking for a dedicated, trustworthy, and relatable real estate agent, contact me. We will make good things happen together!
