I am an internationally awarded Global Market Specialist offering worldwide connections with over 100,000+ Coldwell Banker agents across 41 countries. I am a passionate real estate professional with the natural instincts of a seasoned agent with 26 years in the business. I understand the needs and motivations of both Sellers and Buyers which successfully empowers me to prevail and assure success for my clients. 

I enjoy helping clients buy and sell real estate. From the first-time home buyer, seasoned investor, clients in gated communities, to fine estates, all my clients receive my full attention. I stay in touch with my clients, keeping them updated on the market and smoothly guide the owners though the details of the sale of their home. My goal is to make every closing a smooth experience.

Whether a multi-million-dollar home in a gated community or a rural estate on the waterfront, I bring the skill sets and intuition to the table to understand the property, how to present the property and how to effectively utilize the tools provided to me through my company. At the end of the day, I can demonstrate the features and benefits of owning the property with focus and confidence.

I live in James City County. My late husband and I shared 45 wonderful years of marriage. Our daughter Meredith lives locally, along with her husband and my granddaughter Kourtney. I have two dogs. One is a Pembroke Corgi named Scooter and a very happy rescue, named Pickles. My granddaughter came up with their names.

Prior to becoming a successful and passionate REALTOR®, I worked at Mary Immaculate Hospital as the Cardiopulmonary Department Head. I also Co-Owned Southern Comfort Farm Inc. with my husband John, owning and managing numberless farms and barns boarding up to 70 horses. In addition to running the farm, I trained horses and riders to perform and enjoy hunter and jumper shows up and down the east coast. I currently give clinics and judge.

Raised with a family loving boating, sports cars and horses, it is no surprise that waterfront and equestrian properties are close to my heart. I am very knowledgeable, both through personal experience, as well as listing and selling these specialty properties.
