With the loss of a loved one,I paused and reevaluated the life I wanted. While figuring out how to live my best life,I learned an important lesson.

I locked the door and walked away from the office. It was strange knowingI would not be back again, but my life was finally moving forward.

After my father passed away, I reevaluated my life. He was young at the time, and seeing what he went through made me realize how short life can be. We only get a certain number of years here, and I began to wonder if I was using mine how I truly wanted.

Sure, I was living life, but I was neither happy nor fulfilled. Once I realized that, I began to narrow down who I was and what I wanted.

Right away I took control of my health and diet. I had all three of my daughters by then, and I wanted to seta good example for them through living my best life.

Within a year of that wakeup call, I became a single mother, and I became a licensed REALTOR® a couple of years later in 2015. I made the strategic decision to close my insurance company that I had owned for several years, choosing to move toward the future I wanted.

Right out of high school I jumped into my life. I started my career at 18, got married and became a mother. It was not until losing my father that I finally took time to figure out whoI wanted to be.

Of course, it was stressful, especially as a single mother of three starting a new business. However, I have a great relationship with their father, and I also dove deeper into my faith.

It took me several years to get where I wanted to be–a lot of two inches forward and three inches backward. And yet, I was invigorated and knew everything would work out.

I realized that whatever will be will be, no matter how stressed we feel about it. So, I“let go and let God.” I began to trust that God was taking care of things and had a plan for me.

As a child, my family moved a lot.I think I attended just about every elementary school here in Las Vegas. We moved to apartments, lived in campers and even surfed on friends’ couches. We bounced around from place to place, and my parents never owned a home during all that time.

Though those experiences built my character and who I am as a social person, I never forget what not having a "home” felt like.

When I got married out of high school, I bought my first house with my children’s father at 19 years old.Until that point in my life, I had never lived in the same place for more than one year. It was groundbreaking for me, and while I enjoyed looking at houses, I became passionate about homeownership.

I have seen firsthand how it can change lives and legacies.As a REALTOR®, I am fulfilled by what I do because I believe not only in having a home for the stability and security of it, but also to build generational wealth and rewrite family history. 

I still have a lot of adventures ahead of me, but I enjoy trusting the journey and seeing how it all plays out.

Whenever I am not working, I enjoy going to concerts, attending music festivals, traveling, and snowboarding. My favorite part of being a REALTOR® is being able to walk my clients through the process to achieve their real estate dreams.

I will be here to explain every step of this process from A to Z and walk hand in hand with you from the beginning to the end and beyond. As a relationship-centered person, I give my clients time, guidance and expertise.

Having lived in Las Vegas all my life, I know these communities and neighborhoods unlike anyone else. I also have a vast professional network of reliable vendors to help before, during and after the transaction.

Real estate is more than a career for me–it is my passion. Homeownership is for everyone, and I believe in the power it can provide. When I bought my first home at 19, I broke the cycle in my family as the first home owner in two generations.

Not only does having a home offer stability and security, it offers a path to create generational wealth. As your REALTOR®, I will become your go-to expert for every recommendation and real estate need. I want you to succeed, and even after closing,I will continue to support you as your lifelong REALTOR® and friend.

Sincerely,
