As a real estate professional, I recognize and value the trust that clients put in me to help them with their real estate needs. From personal experience I have been a buyer and a seller. I have rented and I have been a landlord. My clients can be assured that when they work with me, I am empathetic to their needs and will strive every day to exceed their expectations. I value sincerity, integrity, and honesty and uphold those standards in both my personal and professional life. My brokerage, Coldwell Banker Apex, Realtors is one of the most successful real estate companies in the US (Top 1%) based on closed sales. Prior to entering real estate, I was in academia and research. I hold a Ph.D in ecology from Texas A&M University. My family spent 6 years living overseas in Indonesia. I have also been a stay-at-home mom and most recently primary caregiver for aging parents. I will listen to you. I am flexible, low-pressure, patient, and an effective communicator/negotiator. I apply my analytical and research skills to find clients their dream home and to accurately price and market a home.
