It was only natural I become a Realtor, after all, it is what I was surrounded by for over half my life.  As a young child I loved music.  My parents bought me instruments and I would teach myself to play them.  After graduating high school in Lake County I pursued a music career at Berkley College of Music as a vocalist.  This experience gave me the courage to pursue another passion of mine, climbing mountains and snowboarding in Colorado.  After living there for 3 years and having my son we returned to IL to be close to family.  I earned my real estate license and started the pursuit of helping families through the challenges of finding, negotiating, and closing on their dream.  Today I spend my free time fishing with my son, playing music with my daughter, and making annual trips to Colorado to mountain bike and adventure.
