Let's be real—I'm not your suit-wearing, Mercedes-driving REALTOR®. Most days, you'll find me in jeans, driving my Jeep, and blasting ‘90s rap. If you're looking for someone in heels, I'm probably not your girl. But if you need someone who's willing to crawl into a (reasonably) spider-infested attic or crawl space to check on something, then we should definitely keep talking.
I've been married to my high school sweetheart for 22 years, and we have two incredible daughters who are turning out just like me—strong, independent, hardworking, and (let's be honest) sometimes a little stubborn. They're already great negotiators and love redecorating their rooms, so I think real estate might be in their future.
I'm a perfectionist but definitely not perfect—an internal struggle I deal with daily.
Travel is my escape! Every year, we take two vacations—one to visit our Texas family in the summer and another to explore somewhere new during Christmas. Over the years, we've visited Australia, the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, New York, Mexico, the Bahamas, and more. Next on my bucket list? Ireland, Rome, Paris, Egypt, and Alaska.
I've been through tough times. When the market crashed in 2010, my husband (a carpenter) lost his job, and I was pregnant with our second daughter. We nearly lost our home and had to file for bankruptcy. Life throws challenges your way, and I know firsthand how stressful that can be. If you're facing a tough real estate situation, let's talk—I want to help.
For the last 19 years, I've called Lindenhurst home. I love being involved in the community, from serving on the District 41 PTO to starting a Girl Scout troop when my daughter was young. I was the Executive Director of the Lake Villa, Lindenhurst, and Round Lake Area Chamber of Commerce and now serve as its Treasurer.
So, that's me in a nutshell. If you're looking for a down-to-earth, hardworking, community-driven agent who's ready to help, I'd love to connect!
