Michelle grew up in Fairfax Station as the daughter of a land developer, John D. Ringle. Her father established his own development company, "Investco" and developed eleven (11) 5-acre lot communities throughout Fairfax Station, with Michelle's mother working alongside him.

 

During Fairfax County's 200-year anniversary celebration, John Ringle was proclaimed the "Father of the Occoquan Watershed," because of his numerous conservation efforts to protect the land adjacent to the Occoquan River, which provides 15 % of the water for Fairfax County.

 

Growing up with two of the best teachers and always taking notes; about conservation and preserving the land and its bounties; and about the importance of integrity and honesty, gave Michelle a strong base to become a Realtor. She obtained her license in 2001and moved to Stafford County in 2004 with her husband, daughter, and 4 step-children.

 

Michelle has ridden the bridle trails of Stafford and traveled its roads, boated on its waters, and become active with civic groups, including Stafford Crime Solvers, the Eagles and Moose Clubs, and the Quantico Garden Club.

 

Michelle calls Stafford Paradise and promises to share this vision with her clients, while serving them with the utmost professionalism and integrity in every transaction.

 

Michelle has attained the Certified Neighborhood Specialist, Certified Short Sale Professional, and Accredited Home Staging Specialist designations.
