A: Someone peed in the pool.

Q: What was your favorite moment in your career so far?

A: Being featured in Real Producers magazine, and also being recognized for the 3rd year in a row for Platinum Top 500 Realtors. Pretty amazing and humbling!

Q: What do you wish you had known when you first got your real estate license?

Q: In what ways have you seen the real estate industry change since you started?

A: Oh my gosh so much, it's ever changing and that's what I love about it the most that the moment you know it all you're probably dead ha! I've seen interest rates be in their lowest at 2% to now pushing 8%, and have seen multiple offers crazier than ever in 2020 and 2021 to now homes sitting on the market again for over 100 days. Can't make this stuff up!
