Hello!

I have loved design since I was a little girl and cut my interior design teeth on our first home, which we renovated just before selling it. As we were finishing our renovation, I learned how much we were going to have to pay in real estate commissions and could see how cost effective it would be if I got a real estate license and sold my house myself. At the time, the real estate market was on fire, and selling a house was an unbelievable piece of cake. I had no intention of becoming a full-time real estate agent, but planned to keep my license active and do some real estate investing, maybe a few flips, and help a few close friends and family members on the side. We ended up selling that home for more than we ever thought we could just as the Pandemic was sinking it's teeth in, and I realized we had made some key renovation decisions that took our home's value higher than even that hot market could alone. 

​

I started offering design consultations to my listings appointments and my client's started seeing their homes sell faster and for more money. I also built my own custom home during that time which appraised for $130,000 over our pre-construction appraisal in a downward trending market. I learned over and over again that people are willing to pay more for good design, and it doesn't have to cost more.

 

While design was my first love, I found I also loved taking those designs to market and seeing what the people were willing to pay.  I found that real estate was actually something I enjoyed and was good at. My father, who is a gifted entrepreneur, suggested I make a business model out of it, and Birdie Homes was born.

I joined Real Brokerage and an unbelievable powerhouse team full of top agents that I get to talk with everyday. I love being part of Real--it has launched my business into the next level, and I couldn't be more grateful.
