I was Born in Tomball and have lived in Montgomery County my entire life. I have not always been involved in the Real Estate Industry but have had the privilege of building quite a few homes with my Father and family. Prior to obtaining my license I was in the Healthcare Industry and it was just a job. Real Estate is a passion of mine for a few reasons: one being the relationships that are built with people and secondly getting to share in the joy and excitement that is experienced when that person finds and obtains their dream home. I am involved with many organizations in my community and have a passion for people and family. In addition to being an Agent, I substitute teach on occasion in the Montgomery School District to stay connected to families and the community. God, my Son and my Family are my top priorities. I love to spend time with them and my friends and cherish the memories we make in our homes. Let me be a part of your journey finding that perfect place you can call Home.

Thank you for considering me in your search for the right real estate agent! Buying or Selling a home can be an exciting adventure when you have the right agent and team to support you through the process. Your home is not only your biggest investment, it is also where some of life's most precious memories take place. What drives me is helping you get the most out of home ownership. I believe that the right home can be a place that fosters healthy families while also being a strong financial asset for you to lean on. I look forward to being alongside you through that journey to finding that perfect home or helping you sell one of your more cherished possessions.

A little about me. I am a native Houstonian, and have always been proud to live, work, play, and raise a family here. Prior to becoming a real estate agent, I was in custom home building in Houston for over 13 years, and I also worked in the industrial construction industry for another 7. I have worked with many different clients over the years, and my number one goal with everyone is to have a meaningful understanding of your needs so that I can assist you in reaching your goals.
