In my 19th year full time in real estate, I'm still in my sweet spot. Having a small part in God's hand in my clients lives is still as thrilling today as when I was a newbie. I am proactive, tenacious, a problem solver by nature and work hard to anticipate the next thing in order to make a transaction as stress free as possible for my buyers and sellers. I opened the first office in IL for Fathom Realty in January 2014. Best business decision made to date! Best real estate brokerage , hands down, ever! On a personal level, I've been married to the love of my life for 39 years. We have five children, five in-law kids and twelve grandkids. Being a grandma is the best reward!
