As a “Jill of all trades” I have performed a plethora of occupations but have always had my hand in real estate since a young girl following my realtor grandma around to work. I’ve enjoyed nannying, teaching dance, and accounting, but I always knew I would end up in Real Estate in some form or another. Working in the Vacation Rental industry is a marriage of my creative and analytical skills put to practical use and I enjoy it greatly!
