When I meet new people I am always asked one of two questions:

1.  Why Real Estate? 

Answer: I have been in real estate since 1985.  I first 'caught the bug' when I lived in Milwaukee, where I hosted a radio call-in talk show about real estate.  I enjoyed it so much that I decided the only 'cure' would be to get my license when I moved to Texas!

2.  Are you a "real" doctor?  Where did the Dr. come from?  

Answer: I have a Doctorate in Education Leadership.  I am proud of the title and the work I committed to in order to earn this degree!  I also feel it has helped me with my 'bedside manner' when helping people with their real estate needs.  
    
I pride myself in making your transaction a smooth and efficient one by providing high-quality real estate service through my attention to detail, commitment to excellence, and professional & individualized care.  My favorite part of real estate is when the deal is closed and I get to hand over the keys to your new home!                                  

                                                  

Family is a big part of my life. 
I have 3 children and 7 grandchildren who all live nearby. 


I love bowling and am part of a bowling league but am still looking for a 'cure' to my lack of a 300 game!


In addition to my Doctorate of Education Leadership my other credentials include:
