As a rare Northern Virginia native I have area knowledge that sets me apart from other agents. Coupled with my desire to be a REALTOR since high school this allows me to provide superior customer service to all of my clients. I'm a graduate of Fairfax County Public Schools and attended Terra Centre Elementary School, Washington Irving Intermediate, and Robinson Secondary School. After high school I attended Virginia Tech and earned a B.S. in Finance from the Pamplin College of Business. After graduating from Virginia Tech I was a "Big Five" Management Consultant. This business background laid the foundation for running my own business, developing my marketing plan and strong work ethic which has helped me to successfully serve my clients needs. I have dreamed of being a REALTOR since High School and am thrilled to be living my dream. I believe that true passion breads success and this has lead me to offer superior customer service and strive to have cutting edge industry knowledge.

In my free time I enjoy spending time with my husband and two daughters, and enjoy traveling, shopping, scrapbooking, and volunteering at my daughter's school.
