Built Different.
I want to see you succeed. With over $20M closed in 2024 and $100M in my nine year real estate career, I am poised to help you navigate the buying and selling process in the Lake Norman region. With close to 200 properties closed, I've had many repeat clients and encourage you to read the reviews left by many of them. When I'm not selling real estate, most days you will find me cheering on the Davidson Wildcats as a Proud Partner of Davidson Athletics!!
As a native of the area, I was born and raised in Davidson and graduated from Davidson College; I know the Davidson/Lake Norman region. My parents raised three children in Davidson and my father was an Economics professor at Davidson whose career spanned six decades at the college. My mother won the college’s highest award for community service recognition. This area has always held a special place in my heart and I know why people want to call this area their home.
