Real Estate is my passion. As the old saying goes "when you do what you love…you love what you do"! And that sentiment rings so true to my career as a Realtor. The reality is that a home, whether buying or selling, is the biggest investment in most people's lives. And as such, I believe the home buying or selling process should be handled with extreme care.

I am committed to providing the best service possible to my clients. I guide my clients through the entire process of selling or buying a home… from start to finish. I believe in honest and clear communication. The interests of my clients will always be a top priority with me.

I am a realtor located in Katy, TX where I help families buy & sell "The American Dream" (i.e. homes) within the greater West Houston area (including Katy, Fulshear, Richmond, Sugar Land, Cypress). Prior to relocating to Katy, TX I lived in Connecticut where I held various positions in the field of Information Technology working for major insurance companies. During this time I was extremely fortunate with the real estate market - I realized appreciation on the sale my homes & investment properties. I truly lived "The American Dream" - building wonderful memories in my own home while building personal wealth through home ownership. I found a career in real estate was a natural transition when I moved to Houston, one of the fastest growing cities in the U.S. In support of my real estate practice, I have earned additional certifications in the following specializations: ABR - Accredited Buyers Representative CNE - Certified Negotiation Expert GRI - Graduate Realtor Institute SRS - Seller Residential Specialist SRES - Senior Real Estate Specialist Your profit is my priority. Whether you are selling or buying a home, it would be an honor to partner with you to help you achieve your personal "American Dream."
