My husband Tim and I live on the beautiful East Bay with our two young children and our Australian Shepard, Kya. My husband is a Traverse City dentist, and when we are not working we enjoy bringing up our children in the northern Michigan lifestyle. You can often find me playing on the beach with my family and indulging in my love of gardening. I also like to keep busy weight training or doing cardio dance classes. My most serious passion is cooking. I love to cook from scratch using local ingredients and every kind of vegetable I can get my hands on!
Before I discovered my passion for real estate, I attended both the University of Michigan (Go Blue) and Michigan State University (Go Green).  At the University of Michigan I earned a master's degree in Natural Resources and the Environment and at Michigan State University I earned two bachelor's degrees, one in Journalism and one in Geography. I value my education and it serves me well as a Realtor®.
