I grew up in Ontario, Canada before relocating to Houston, Texas in 2008 with my daughter to be closer to family. I graduated from the University of Waterloo with a Bachelor of Math & Accounting and went on to obtain my CPA designations in both Canada and the US before transitioning to real estate. I have always had a love for real estate and real estate investing.
I live in Spring, Texas with my two rescue dogs Bella & Lucy and my daughter's cat Leo. In addition to spending time with my daughter and grandson, I love mountain biking, camping, hiking, reading & visiting national parks throughout the US. I enjoy volunteering at Manna Food Pantry Resource Center in Houston as well as volunteering with the real estate investors network, the Greater Houston REIA.
In addition to working in public accounting and as well as for various corporations as a Finance Director, I owned my own accounting practice and had the opportunity to work with small charitable organizations as well as small and medium sized owner operated businesses before selling to spend more time with my daughter.
Through my background in finance and accounting, I have developed very strong negotiation skills. I pride myself in always putting my clients' best interests first. I really enjoy helping buyers and sellers navigate the home selling/buying process. I also have a special interest in helping real estate investors locate properties. I have developed a large network of buyers all over the country and have several creative strategies that can be used where necessary in the home selling process.
I would love the opportunity to help meet your real estate needs.
