I grew up in the Willoughby/Eastlake area and graduated from North High in 1981. At 18 years old, I couldn't wait to travel the country and moved to New Orleans from 1981-1986. From there I lived in the Los Angeles area from 1986-1990. I received an Associate in Arts degree from Chaffey Community College in Rancho Cucamonga, CA, in 1990. After graduation, I moved back to Ohio to be with my family and friends and continue with my education. I started in Real Estate in 1990 as a way to work my way through college. After 5 years of building my business as a real estate agent, I realized that it was a perfect fit for me and that I love my work. 34 years later, I still love it and am so grateful to all the wonderful people that I have met and been able to assist throughout the years.
I bring to the relationship up-to-date knowledge of the marketplace. I pride myself on finding the very best financing programs that save my buyer clients thousands of dollars and enable my seller clients to open up their pool of buyers to people who may not have qualified. Other real estate agents call me asking about where the good deals are. I also try to empower my clients by educating them about the process and what to expect. People buying homes tell me that they appreciate the time I take with them upfront, explaining the process before we even start looking at houses and how it makes their experience so much easier because they know what to expect. I keep in close communication with my clients.
Whether you want to know how much your home is worth or information about living in Lake County, I want to earn the right to be your real estate agent. Please know that I will make that happen as I put your needs first and provide you with exceptional service. I have lived in Mentor for the past 19 years and have two daughters, ages 19 and 21, who are active in Cross Country, Swimming, Ski Club, and Theatre. Though my market is all of Lake County, Cuyahoga, Ashtabula, and Geauga Counties - I am licensed in the entire state of Ohio and not limited to those areas.
