An Islander-by-Choice, Stacy and her family lived in Louisville, Kentucky for 22 years before returning home to Texas in 2015.

She has personal experience in owning a downtown Galveston loft, a West End beach house, and a historic Queen Anne home in midtown. As she tells clients, she came for the beach but stayed for the town.
Stacy considers herself a matchmaker of sorts. She takes pride in her ability to uncover her clients' essential needs; create a prioritized list to guide their search; and then match them with a curated selection of properties. Methodically guiding clients through the negotiation process is one of her strengths, recognizing that the most successful property deals marry emotional satisfaction with financial peace of mind.
