I moved to Charlotte over 16 years ago and immediately fell in love with this town’s diversity. I enjoy attending local marketing and musical events. In my spare time a few of my hobbies include writing, cooking, and hiking. My family’s favorite thing to do here is to take a weekend trip to the North Carolina mountains for a little rest and relaxation.
Charlotte conveniently offers the luxury of uptown living as well as quiet mountain retreats, coupled with all four seasons which allows many people to enjoy. Charlotte is becoming well known for its job opportunities, sports, and downtown living, which is great for the work hard, play hard lifestyle. This makes Charlotte the perfect home.
One of the things I love most about being a real estate professional is getting to meet new and exciting people every day. From first time home buyers to relocating from another state, you never know what a day in the office will bring.
Being in the real estate business for the past 11 years I understand that the needs and wants of every client can be different. I am respective of these things because I know buying and selling a home is a sensitive and large commitment.
As a Student Instructor here at Superior School of Real Estate, I enjoy what I do and would love to help you get started in your Real Estate career.
