A Journey of Resilience, Leadership, and PassionMy life has been a balancing act—I'm a proud wife and mother of five and the ultimate sports mom. If there’s a sideline, you’ll find me there, cheering on my kids. The spark between my husband and me ignited in a traffic jam (proof that even gridlock can have its perks). We share three beloved dogs, and if I had my way, our home might turn into a small zoo—if only I could get my husband on board!A Career Rooted in DeterminationI started my real estate career early and have never looked back. With a combination of grit, wit, and relentless hard work, I’ve made my way up the industry ladder. Along the journey, I've been honored as - Tampa Bay Business Journal 40 Under 40 honoree- Tampa Bay Business Journal Business Woman of the Year- RealTrends Emerging LeaderIf that didn't afford me a lesson in humility, I also graced the cover of RISMedia, was a guest on Women Who Lead and have been published in the Wall Street Journal and Tampa Bay Business and Wealth magazine. My career has been a testament to the power of determination and the value of hard work.The DifferenceI’m more than just a name in real estate—I’m a mentor, a leader, and someone deeply committed to the success of others. My approach is kind but firm, driven but approachable. Whether brainstorming new projects or helping my team grow, I bring thoughtful, creative solutions that inspire trust and respect.My favorite mantra, “Friendly opposition is required,” invites those around me to challenge ideas, push boundaries, and grow together. It breaks down the hierarchy and allows everyone a seat at the table.Leading with HeartMy story isn’t just about professional accomplishments—it's about leading with both my head and heart. I balance a successful career with devotion to my family and community while keeping my humor and humility intact. I believe true leadership is about lifting others and holding people accountable to their own abilities while staying grounded.Resilience, wit, ambition, and compassion drive me forward—and I’m proud of every step.
