After starting my career at the age of 18 at a large financial institution, I gained my knowledge in computers and networking, I was presented with an opportunity to manage a computer store in the academic world. After 6 years of sales and service, my family was in the market for a new home and after going through the process, the real estate business looked like a new challenge that I wanted to explore! So in 2002 I took the challenge head-on and needless to say it was a great decision! I've been licensed in Iowa and Nebraska since 2002 and I specialize in residential, "short sale" and foreclosure properties. I have made many great friends along the way and it has been very rewarding!
My motto to my customers is...."Just relax...when buying or selling a home, I'll be with you every step of the way."

One of my favorite customer service quotes: “To give real service, you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is Sincerity and Integrity.” ~Douglas Adams
