From Passion to Profession: My Journey in Real Estate

If you had told me years ago that I’d be spending my days helping people find their perfect homes, I probably would have laughed. Not because I didn’t believe in real estate, but because my path here wasn’t exactly traditional. I grew up in North Texas, but have moved a TON over the years. As a former flight attendant and US Navy/UPS family, I have lived in San Diego, Japan, Virginia, Georgia and Kentucky. My clients are always my first priority, and both my clients and family can attest to my intentional communication, tenacity and high energy. I am an experienced listing agent and am happy to say I do what I love every single day—helping families, investors, and dreamers. I’m equally comfortable staging and marketing homes for sale, or helping buyers purchase land, commercial properties or finding their dream home.

Lessons from the Field: Experience That Matters

I got my start in real estate in 2019, and let me tell you—nothing replaces hands-on experience. I’ve seen the market shift, watched neighborhoods transform, and have guided clients through it all. From first-time homebuyers with excited jitters to seasoned investors looking for the next big opportunity, my job is to make the process seamless and rewarding.

One of my most rewarding experiences? Helping a family relocate cross-country with only a month’s notice. It took strategy, negotiation, and more than a few late-night calls, but in the end, we found them a home that fit their needs perfectly. Moments like that remind me why I do what I do.

More Than Just Listings: Building Community Connections

Real estate isn’t just about transactions—it’s about people. I’ve always believed that knowing your community is just as important as knowing the market. I’m not just selling homes; I’m helping people plant roots, build futures, and create memories.

I spend a lot of time networking with local business owners, staying up-to-date on upcoming developments, and understanding the nuances of each neighborhood I serve. This allows me to provide insights beyond just square footage and listing prices—I help clients understand the lifestyle they’re stepping into.

It is my personal goal to challenge myself to be an industry expert through growing my confidence and abilities by becoming a Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist (CLHMS), Seller Representative Specialist (SRS), Real Estate Negotiations Expert (RENE), Pricing Strategy Advisor (PSA), and Accredited Luxury Home Specialist (ALHS).

The Client-First Approach: Why Relationships Matter

Buying or selling a home can be one of the most significant financial decisions of your life. That’s why I take a client-centered approach—listening first, advising second. I make it my mission to understand your goals, whether that means finding a home with the perfect kitchen island for your culinary dreams or maximizing the return on your investment property.

My philosophy is simple: be the agent I’d want to work with if I were in my client’s shoes. That means being transparent, proactive, and always putting my clients’ needs first.

A Little More About Me

When I’m not negotiating contracts or scouting out the latest market trends, you’ll probably find me baking, in my garden, painting vintage furniture, and entertaining family and friends. I actively serve in my church and LOVE opportunities I get to mentor local college students. I am also thrilled to be a Board Member of the Denton Fire Traditions, a nonprofit serving the City of Denton Fire Department, where my dad served as a Captain for 41 years!

I also love a good challenge—whether that’s finding the perfect home for a picky buyer or tackling a tricky market shift head-on. There’s always something new to learn in real estate, and that’s what keeps me excited every day.

WOW!!!!🤯🤩Thank you, The Dallas Morning News!!👏🏼👏🏼☺️Our little 2-year old company was just voted #1 Top Place to Work in the Small Business category (all businesses with less than 150 employees). Last year we were voted #4!🥇🏆This is so important to us, because we truly are a work family, and love and encourage one another professionally AND personally. Local Pro Realty is the BEST!😍And we are now in the top 2% of all Volume and Transactions in Denton County!!!🔥💥🔥On a personal note, I was awarded Top Producer for October and also 3rd Quarter, thanks to my faithful friends and clients!!🥰🌟This year has been a VERY tough market, to say the least. Less than 1% of real estate agents in the country have had a single sale this year, and many are leaving the business.😔 So I’m extra grateful that the Lord keeps me busy helping people.🏡💕I’ve got SO much to celebrate and be thankful for!🥳🙌🏻#trinawesthomes #dfwrealtor #northtexasrealtor #dfwrealproducers #listingagent #localprorealty #buyersagent #topproducer #ilovewhatido ...

🌟CLOSED and FUNDED (finally!!!!!!!)🌟This was a doozy of a transaction. Still working on it hours after funding.😅😳🫠During our buying journey, we found the cutest condo, and went under contract very quickly, closing in 7 days. Everyone hustled to make it all work! On closing day, LAST TUESDAY, we did the Buyer’s walk through an hour before closing. It was the day that it rained hard for hours, and overnight. As I went through turning all the lights on, I quickly saw that it was raining INSIDE the condo as well.🫣😱 It was wet everywhere inside, so I knew it was time to call the listing agent and title company and delay closing…which upon further inspection we decided to terminate.😖 We were all disappointed, as it was the cutest condo!😭BUT…Lo and behold…the condo next door was also for sale.😏 So I quickly made an appointment to see it. We walked over, fell in love AGAIN, and after some fierce negotiating😤, went under contract a few days layer.🙌🏻This transaction also had its share of issues, even at the closing table😳 and I was beginning to wonder if it just wasn’t meant to be.😞But…today we FINALLY closed!!🙌🏻🥳🎉 My clients ran out so quickly that we forgot to take a photo, but I wanted to thank this sweet lady (Chris Price with Title Resources North Texas). She was a champion through both transactions. When we terminated, then immediately went under contract again, she picked up the ball and started running again to get us to the finish line.My clients were so patient, flexible and trusted me to get this done. I absolutely LOVE what I do. I truly enjoy being a problem solver. And very grateful that I got to hand them a new set of keys this afternoon!😍🏡🔑💕#closingday#newhomeowner#buyersagent#trinawesthomes#dfwrealtor#DFWrealproducers#northtexasrealestate#dentonrealestate ...
