I am a born and raised New Orleanian. The culture has been ingrained in my life since before I can remember. New Orleans has been a wonderful place to grow up and build my life. There is always something going on here, whether it be a festival, a random brass band playing on the corner or a food truck parade.

I graduated from the University of New Orleans in 2005 with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration with concentration in Real Estate. After that I went to The Art Institute and received a Residential Planning Diploma in 2007. I have learned a lot about business and home design. With this knowledge, I decided that I wanted to be a REALTOR®. In 2009, in the middle of the foreclosure crisis, I finally took the plunge. Not a great time for Realtors, but it gave me a chance to learn from some of the best realtors in the business and put that knowledge to work in my own business.

What I enjoy most about Real Estate is helping buyers to find the property that suits their needs best at that time in their life, whether it’s a first time home, upsize/downsize or investment property. I also enjoy seeing all the interesting and beautiful houses we have here in the city. It’s never a dull day here in NOLA!

In my time off, I enjoy spending time with my husband, daughter, and our two Dachshunds, Hot Dog & Roux-ga-roux. We love the outdoors, food and festivals!
