about.serving

I started my Real Estate Agent career in May of 2009 in Red Deer, Alberta. My initial clients were a young couple purchasing their first home. Instantly, I knew I had made the best choice for my lifelong profession. Sharing their delight in finding everything they were looking for was exhilarating. I was so overjoyed for them and thankful to be chosen to participate in the experience. That fall, I got married and moved to Airdrie to be with my husband. By October 2010, I had expanded my Real Estate career to the Airdrie/Calgary markets while actively working in the Central Alberta communities, including Red Deer. As first-time home-buyers have made up the bulk of my clients, I have comprehensive experience working with them. I pride myself on anticipating their needs and educating them about the process and everything involved. I have also enjoyed serving people in all different life stages, including first-time home sellers, investors looking for their next project, or those who are upsizing or downsizing. I continue to believe being a Realtor is rewarding, challenging, and exciting. In the last 13+ years of working in real estate, I have extensively grown along the way. To make myself a better and effective Realtor to adequately serve my clients, I constantly endeavour to learn and grow. I aim to stay updated on industry trends, including new and emerging technologies, updated real estate laws, and negotiation tactics. In addition, I manage and maintain unique knowledge of neighborhoods and elements to consider when commissioning a new home build. I recognize and value my clients' trust in me, and I strive to exceed their expectations every day. When I am not actively helping buyers and sellers achieve their real estate goals, you can find me spending time outside exploring our beautiful Alberta parks with my husband Miles and our dog Riddick or being the best aunty I can be to my niece and nephew Emma and Eoin.
