I have only had two jobs in my life: 20 years with BellSouth/AT&T and real estate.

Stone Mountain

In high school, I loved all things science-related, so I decided early on that I wanted to be a pharmacist. I started the pre-pharmacy degree at the University Georgia and quickly learned that Latin was not my friend!

I love reading self care books, journaling, and online shopping always is a quick fix for my stress.

I would love to meet Michelle Obama. She’s a person of wholly admirable intelligence, grace, kindness and dedication to making the world a better place. She seems to accept her place in history without letting it define her, dictate her or change her. On her Becoming book tour, she gave millions of women inspiration and made all in attendance excited about being an empowered woman.

The BeltLine. To see how the 22 miles of outdated railways have evolved and converted into pedestrian-friendly walkways and hiking trails for the city is amazing. There is so much more to come!

I love being apart of the “American Dream.” Honestly, my first love is still the first-time homebuyers. Seeing the look of excitement and accomplishment on a client’s face at closing is the most rewarding feeling.

I always find a way to connect with my clients. I am truthful and I always go that extra. I have a gift of remembering little things about the clients that most people wouldn’t. Most importantly, I listen to my clients. After all, they are the ones that will be purchasing the home.

I could say that last year, working with first-time homebuyers was the most difficult aspect of my job. The market prevented my clients from purchasing their dream homes due to over-bidding of homes and investors sweeping up the affordable homes from the first-time homebuyers.

I am big on referrals. Make a lasting impression on your last client, so that when they speak about their experience, everyone will want that same experience, and that includes working with you!

I recently started The Watcher on Netflix.

I love the salmon Philly from MetroWest.

The Flat Iron Building. It is simply gorgeous!

One of my clients’ water broke on a showing, and there were eight Realtors and clients in line behind us! Needless to say, we all had one common goal in that home – NOT TO HAVE THAT BABY!

Because I am such a people person, many people will be surprised that I am really a loner and very quiet.

I celebrated my milestone birthday in Mexico this year, and Atelier Playa Mujeres is now one of my favorites vacation spots.

I was born in Miami, so that is my next-favorite city.

Homesnap. I have it set to find any properties (for sale/just sold) near me, no matter where I am. It’s always good to know how the market is in other areas.

My broker, Justin Giles, @topfundmanager. He is passionate about this industry, and he is very inspirational for Realtors/investors.
