Your Realtor for Life. I was born and raised in Puyallup, Washington, a small town, just south of Seattle. I grew up fishing, clam-digging, camping, building forts in the woods, and riding my bike all over town. You know, all the typical girly things..LOL. I never pictured leaving the beautiful Pacific Northwest until the day I met and fell in love with a young soldier named Mark Evans who was stationed at Ft. Lewis Army Base. It didn't take me long to also fall in love with his hometown of Tampa Bay! After finishing his service to our country in 1989, Mark and I relocated to Tampa to start our lives as man and wife. We have spent the past two decades raising two adorable red-headed boys and are very involved in this community. I spent many years working as a Preschool Director and Pre-K Teacher before becoming a Realtor. It was after going through the process of selling our home and purchasing a new one in 2011, that I discovered a passion for the Real Estate business. I became a Certified Home Stager and began my own Home Staging business while attending Real Estate School. Today, I focus solely on my career as a Realtor but home staging is a service I can offer my clients as well. In my downtime, I relax by crocheting and I enjoy scrapbooking, and cooking up a storm for my friends and family! Over the past 33 years, I have lived in South Tampa and Riverview and I have extensive knowledge of the Tampa Bay area from Ocala to Apollo Beach to the Beaches and Orlando! As part of Century 21 Beggins Enterprises, the #1 Selling Century 21 Brokerage in Florida, I continue to attend training each weekday morning as it gives me the edge over my competition when it comes to being educated about the current market conditions, recent legal changes to contract laws, and the latest technology that allows me to remain "Smarter.Bolder.Faster!" Also on my team is a special group of agents who specialize in specific areas of real estate from Commercial to agents who can help with the Latin Market, Century21Espanol.com. The decision to buy or sell a home is one of the most important financial decisions you will ever make! You need someone who is an expert in this field. I have been doing this since 2012 and have been blessed to help my clients when things have gone smoothly and even when things have not gone as planned. My experience and ability to navigate pitfalls with a calm, clear head, means you will have an advocate who can walk you through each step with as little stress as possible. A "people-person" by nature, I look forward to working with you each step of the way! Contact me today and let's get started!
