"Life is Short, Love Where You Live! When you have a pivotal life moment that motivates you to buy or sell your home, I want you to know that I will be there with you during one of life's BIG moments and for many years to come! I was born and raised in NC, and I grew up visiting the Crystal Coast for family vacations with my dad, mom, grandmother and sisters. After one of my sisters moved here, I spent most of my weekends in Atlantic Beach from 2009-2017. I couldn't get enough, and I ultimately decided to make this beautiful place my home in 2018!
