I grew up in an Air Force family and have lived all over the country, including Alaska. Having been in Austin now for 20 years, I am thrilled to call it home. I lived in Lakeway for many years before moving to Apache Shores in 2002. I have two daughters, both of whom attended schools in the Lake Travis ISD (one still there).

My involvement in the community is something I take pride in. Being in the Lakeway – Lake Travis Rotary Club has given me many opportunities. I became the Rotary advisor to the Lake Travis High School Interact Club in 2002. Interact is a high school community service club. I have also been very active with the American Cancer Society, chairing Relay For Life several times since 2003. There is an annual Cystic Fibrosis Foundation fundraiser on Lake Travis that I have been involved in for since 2002.

Prior to real estate I was a substitute teacher in all of the Lake Travis ISD schools. I subbed every grade level and many subjects. My favorites, for which I got called a lot were special education and band.

Hobbies include snow skiing, reading, SEO, exploring the Hill Country and spending time with friends.

Well, we pulled off our first ever Halloween Carnival and it was great. The weather was an uncertainty as a cold front approached and there was a chance at thunderstorms. However, when the front hit, all we got was wind, which took apart many of our decorations. ...
