With family that has been fully engaged in Georgia real estate (both residential and commercial) for over 50 years, the importance of our market and the buying and selling process have been instilled in me for as long as I can remember. I first endeavored into this industry as a full-time executive assistant to a commercial real estate development firm at the age of 19. I’ve worked my way through our business, learning all of the ins and outs, and gaining the skill set needed to ensure my clients always get the best representation in the process of buying and selling. Licensed in 2017 and awarded “Rookie of the Year” for the Cherokee Association of Realtors, opening my own brokerage, Red Barn Alpharetta in 2019 and being awarded the REALTOR of the Year that same year by the Cherokee Association, I’ve had the pleasure of getting to experience the full gamut of real estate, both residential and commercial, over the last 26 years. I now own, thru a partnership with two good friends, LOCAL Realty North Atlanta in the downtown Alpharetta area. Through years of education and marketing training, I’ve been able to build a customized portfolio of services for each and every client, ensuring they get the best of my skills, but in a way that fits them personally. It has been both an honor and pleasure getting to work with clients in and around North Fulton and Cherokee County. I love getting to know folks on a personal level, and assisting them with their professional needs when it comes to the sale and purchase of their homes.
