About

About ME!

In 1999, I jumped into action with the Iowa Army National Guard as a 12B Combat Engineer with the Co C 224 Engineers. Fast forward to 2001, and I received my degree in electrical mechanics. Immediately after, I dove headfirst into the delicious world of meat processing at Armour Foods. A few years down the line, I pulled off a stunning feat by becoming the youngest Union President, ever at the age of just 28. Shortly after, in 2009 I packed my bags and waved goodbye to my small Southeast Iowa town for a job adventure in the Land of Lincoln. I sharpened my skills as a contract negotiator and champion for employees. But when the position was moved to Chicago in 2015, I pivoted like a pro from benefits negotiator to Real Estate Agent. And guess what? It was a slam dunk! All thanks to my unstoppable drive, negotiation know-how, and friendly-yet-professional vibe. I’m your go-to Realtor for buying or selling your dream home!

The Expert by Your Side

When you’re selling: My track record of success means I know how to showcase your house effectively, market and promote it so that it attracts qualified buyers and get it SOLD for the highest price. Throughout the process, I’m with you every step of the way, making sure your questions are answered, all the details are handled expertly, and the entire experience is a positive one.

When you’re buying: My expertise in the local market means I can introduce you to homes that meet your criteria – and notify you immediately of brand new listings. I can advise you on what to look for when viewing a home, so you don’t make a catastrophic mistake, and I can arm you with in-depth details on every property you see. When you find a home you fall in love with, I know how to negotiate effectively so you get that property, at the best possible price. In fact, nothing pleases me more than saying, “The home is yours.”

The Right Real Estate Agent for You

Whether you’re buying or selling, it’s ultimately about realizing a dream. I understand how much the decision will mean to you. In fact, that’s one of the reasons I became a real estate agent – to help people buy or sell a home, while making the process easy and trouble-free. Clients often tell me how much they appreciate my expertise, my willingness to be there with them every step of the way, and my determination to get them the best deal. They also tell me I’m friendly and a pleasure to work with – which is quite a compliment!
