About

Every home has a story and my expertise is storytelling.

In the world of real estate, I am a passionate storyteller, dedicated to unveiling the unique narratives that reside within every home. Arizona is my chosen sanctuary, where I blend an active outdoor lifestyle with laid-back luxury living. As a full-time licensed Realtor®, my purpose is transforming dreams into reality for those aspiring to settle in the vibrant Scottsdale/Phoenix metro area. Your home search is an extraordinary journey, and I am committed to providing you with exceptional, tailor-made service.

My unwavering focus is to provide my clients 5 star service. In 2022, I closed nearly $31 million in real estate transactions, securing my position as the top Coldwell Banker Realty agent in the competitive Scottsdale/Phoenix market and ranking among the top 1% of CBR agents worldwide.

America's Best Real Estate Professionals ranks me in the top 1.5% of all agents in the United States and in the top 50 agents across Arizona.

If you are ready to list your Valley home, your can trust that I will utilize highly targeted and results-driven marketing strategies, coupled with individualized client services, to ensure the swift and successful sale of your property. Drawing upon my extensive experience and innate ability to connect with people, I guarantee you'll be treated with honesty, integrity, and an authentic touch.

Additionally, you can catch me as the host of "The Retiring Right" show, where I utilize my real estate expertise to showcase the finest active adult lifestyle communities in our region.

People and homes ignite a profound passion within me-it's as simple as that. However, my journey towards real estate was an intricate one. Raised as a farmer's daughter in Wisconsin, I spent my childhood milking cows, baling hay, and riding horses. Those demanding days on the farm instilled an unparalleled work ethic and unwavering values that now permeate my professional life as a Realtor.

Before embarking on this real estate path, I pursued my childhood dream of becoming a television journalist, immersing myself in covering pivotal events that shaped our nation. For over two decades, I served as a TV and radio anchor/reporter, gracing the airwaves in Florida, Maryland, Minnesota, Arkansas, and right here in Arizona.

I love Arizona's breathtaking beauty. Nature calls to me, and I spend time kayaking our waterways or hiking our many trails with my sweet husband, Scott, and our lab Walter. Among my treasured Arizona adventures, Havasupai Falls! Yoga, meditation and working out keep me in balance. It is on my yoga mat that my type-A personality finds solace and serenity. Friends are everything to me and I embrace life-long relationships, deep belly laughs, good wine and great food!
