Originally from Western North Carolina, my professional background spans business, education, and technology. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from the University of South Carolina and pursued computer science studies at the University of North Carolina - Asheville before becoming a certified elementary school teacher. I furthered my education with both a Master’s degree in Elementary Education and a Doctorate in Education from Western Carolina University.

My diverse career has included teaching, school administration, district technology operations, and educational consulting—helping school districts nationwide navigate digital and online learning. My passion for education, problem-solving, and helping others seamlessly translates into my approach to real estate, where I strive to educate and empower my clients.

I believe in giving back and staying engaged in the Columbia, SC community. I proudly serve on the Board of Directors for the Greater Irmo Chamber of Commerce and am an active member of the Optimist Club of St. Andrews/Irmo. Additionally, I contribute to the Central Carolina Realtors Association by serving on the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee, Service Committee, and the Realtors Political Action Committee.

Beyond real estate, I’m passionate about outdoor adventures, including hiking, backpacking, water sports, and global travel. I’ve been fortunate to explore the United States, Europe, and the South Pacific, experiences that have broadened my perspective and enriched how I connect with people from all walks of life.
