What is your favorite thing about your town?
My favorite thing about Williamsburg and the Hampton
Roads area is its rich history. We are fortunate to have access
to historical sites ranging from Native American settlements,
Colonial Williamsburg/Jamestown, Yorktown Battlefield, and
Ft. Monroe, just to name a few. This area is unique in that it
has so much history packed into such a small geographical
area.
What initially drew you to real estate?
What inspired me to pursue a career in real estate was
my passion for architecture. Growing up, my father, an
architect, introduced me to the intricacies of designing and
constructing buildings. He would take me to see his projects
at different stages, from initial renderings to construction
sites and final products. Through this experience, I came
to appreciate the significance of finding the right home for
people and how it can align with their design preferences
and lifestyle. My knowledge of architectural styles and
details also enables me to highlight unique features of homes
I list for sale. Real estate provides the perfect blend of my
interests in architecture and business.
How does your background bring a unique perspective to your work?
I have a degree in business from Old Dominion University,
have owned a successful residential real estate appraisal
business for over fifteen years, and have been a real estate
agent for nearly as long. Through my diverse background and
experience, I have gained an in-depth understanding of real
estate pricing and possess expertise in navigating real estate
contracts and negotiations from both the selling and buying
perspectives. My extensive experience, having analyzed
thousands of real estate contracts and transactions, gives me
a unique perspective and knowledge in the field.
Why is relationship building so key to your success?
Building strong relationships with my clients is crucial to
my success as a real estate agent. When assisting clients in
finding their perfect home, I take the time to understand
their needs, preferences and lifestyle to match them with
the right home and community. When selling a property, I
strive to understand what makes a home and community
special to my clients and to reflect that in my marketing
strategy. My ultimate goal is to establish long-term
connections with my clients, rather than just conducting a
one-time transaction.
What is your mission statement?
To provide a personalized and caring approach to both
buying and selling real estate and work closely with you to
understand your unique needs and goals. I am dedicated
to honesty, transparency, and always putting my clients’
best interests first. I strive to build long-lasting relationships
based on trust and integrity, and to make the real estate
experience as stress-free as possible.
