Family
I was born in Des Moines, Iowa and my family moved to Jacksonville in 1980. My mother served as V.P. and Regional Manager for Watson Realty Corp. She was a realtor for 30 years and is an important mentor in my career. My wonderful significant other Bill is my bridge partner, best friend, running companion and wonderful support of all our dreams. Maggie and Bella are my two beloved rescue dogs. My seven year old niece Thalia is the apple of my eye, and a tiny version of me.
But Really, Who Am I… Beliefs, Skills, and Strengths:
•I am committed to Education and Learning.
•I am ambitious and think outside the box.
•I am an adventurer, an athlete, an achiever.
•I give back to my community.
•I am successful in my chosen field.
