REALTOR® with Coldwell Banker Realty in Destin, Florida. Passionate about helping people find their forever home, second home, or investment property — and selling existing properties for the best possible outcome — across the Emerald Coast.

Real estate, community first.
I'm passionate about real estate and how it allows me to assist people in fulfilling their dreams. Whether it's finding a forever home, second home, investment property, or selling an existing property — I'll be there to guide you through every step. Your smile at the end of the day is my goal as a REALTOR®.
I've been a REALTOR® with Coldwell Banker Realty since January 2014 and a graduate of the REALTOR® Institute (GRI). I'm proud to be a member of the National Association of REALTORS®, Emerald Coast Association of REALTORS®, Florida Association of REALTORS®, Women's Council of REALTORS® Emerald Coast, Destin Chamber of Commerce, and South Walton Chamber of Commerce.
Real estate also allows me to give back to my community. With every transaction I negotiate, it produces jobs and brings income and opportunity to small businesses in our community — the photographer, inspector, appraiser, banker, movers, and the list goes on. That's always been important, and it's something I take seriously with every closing.
My specialties include first-time buyers, secondary and vacation homes, residential, relocation, retirement, investment properties, new construction, and luxury homes across Destin, Miramar Beach, 30A, and the surrounding Emerald Coast. When you decide to work with me, I'll guide you through every step — and we'll succeed together.
