Having grown up in Kane and living much of my adult life in DeKalb county, I am able to offer my clients an invaluable perspective on many local areas. From local parks, community events, hidden gems, and yes… most importantly the best pizza delivery!!
I am fiercely motivated everyday to uphold my clients’ best interest, doing my best to go above and beyond hoping to provide a level of service exceeding their expectations. Whether assisting a first-time buyer, or a seasoned property investor, I pride myself on always delivering the same level of professionalism, discretion, and hard work.
As a mother of three, I understand the demands of family, the importance of “home life”, and count myself lucky to be able to strike a balance between family and work. In my time away from the real estate hustle there is a good chance you’ll find me at the sports fields cheering on my kiddos, organizing something at home (lol), or just spending time with friends and family.
Now that you know a little bit about me, I would love to hear from you, get to know you, and find out how I can assist you with the ever changing real estate market!

I’m proud to call Sycamore my hometown. Born and raised here, I spent time living in the suburbs and the
Rockford area, but came back in 2013—and I’m so grateful to once again call this incredible community home.
With a background in Hospitality Management and more than two decades in Human Resources, Data Analysis, and Project Management, I bring a unique blend of customer care, attention to detail, and strategic thinking to every real estate transaction. My years in the service industry—from small-town diners to exclusive private clubs—taught me the power of genuine connection and listening to people’s needs. In my corporate career, I honed skills that are essential in real estate: clear communication, creative problem-solving, and keeping complex projects on track—skills that directly benefit my clients as they navigate buying or selling a home.
As your REALTOR®, I offer more than just market knowledge—I bring a calm, organized, and client-first approach that helps make your real estate journey smooth and successful. Whether you’re buying your first home, selling a longtime family property, or investing in your future, I’m here to guide you with professionalism, empathy, and dedication.
My husband and I are proud parents of three Veteran children, and we’re passionate about giving back—especially to our Veteran and military families. I understand the unique needs of those who serve and would be honored to support your homeownership goals.
