I have called Omaha home for my whole life. After attending Millard South High School I graduated from Nebraska Methodist College of Nursing and Allied Health with my Bachelors of Science in Nursing. I then became licensed in real estate in 2016.
Choosing to purchase any type of real estate is a big investment and moving, while exciting, is often stressful. My top priority is to deliver an exceptional one-stop, full-service real estate experience for home buyers and sellers.
I work with clients throughout the entire home sale, home search and building process. My expertise puts clients' minds at ease so they can make a confident and informed decision before signing on the dotted line.
I worked as a nurse in oncology and dialysis, this time gave me communication skills that set me apart from others in the field. Skills such as listening intently, asking questions, patiently taking time to understand the clients' needs, all while avoiding the pressure of the “hard sell”, is how I have been able to form strong long-term relationships with my clients. The customer’s needs and concerns are my number one priority.
I proudly represent Richland Homes as a new construction agent, as well as selling residential and commercial real estate.
I have been married for over 30 years and have three children, all of whom have attended parochial schools throughout the city. My extreme commitment and loyalty to family carry over to my business endeavors. Whether it is your first home or your 20th home, I will work diligently to help you find the home of your dreams.
When I am not working, I enjoy playing tennis and watching football, basketball and baseball.

Born and raised in Nebraska, I grew up in South Omaha, Attending Westside High School in Omaha. I received my Bachelor’s of Science in Civil Engineering with a focus in Construction. I have been in real estate for 2 years and am dedicated to providing the best customer service to clients with trust, loyalty, integrity and passion.
I have a very extensive background in pre-development of new construction over seeing sanitary sewer, storm sewer, paving, water main, and power, which provides thorough explaining of the overall design of SID’s and what goes in before new construction begins. I have a great understanding of future and upcoming new construction developments whether they are in Bennington, Papillion, Bellevue and Gretna.
I strive to win the day and ensure I meet the needs and demands of clients and surrounding team members to ensure everything is accounted for.
I like to spend my time being around friends and family, working out, and the summer season.
