As a lifelong resident of Jefferson City, I have extentensive knowledge of the area. I enjoy helping first time home buyers so that their first experience in the market is a good one. I also enjoy working with people of diversity helping them to find a fit for their particular needs and customs. I have extensive experience in luxury homes, I am a residential agent who works with buyers and sellers on all prices of homes, country properties, condos, etc. I served as the 2019 President of the Jefferson City Board of Realtors, 2 terms as local President of Women's Council of Realtors. I have served on many state committees & as a director for the Missouri Realtors. As far as buyers are concerned, we have fun! I make sure they are well informed, I guide them through the process in an informative way using my experience & expertise, but also make it an enjoyable experience. When I represent sellers, I make sure their listing is getting maximum exposure with my extensive advertising.
