To help people achieve their dreams of home ownership. I also have an interest in history and interior
design, which go hand in hand with the profession.

Why did you choose to become a Coach?

When I started in real estate, there were no programs with my brokerage for new agents. Although I was
able to learn and take council from other Realtors, it would have been far more advantageous to have
someone that I could call on as I navigated the ins and outs of my new career. I would like to be that person
and help others succeed as I have.

course the additional income isn’t a bad thing either 🙂
