What excites me most about my business is that there is always someone who needs help. I am a fixer by nature, so this is the perfect job for me. With a background in banking and parents who were in the insurance industry, it felt like a natural fit. I've always enjoyed sales and helping people, and this industry allows me to combine both passions seamlessly.

I was born in Wichita, Kansas, but I've called Ocala, Florida, home for the past 33 years. What I love most about growing up in Ocala is the small-town feel and the joy of running into people from my childhood.

My journey into the financial services industry began when I became fed up with my job at a bank. I didn't like being chained to the corporate world, and I lacked the freedom to be the mom I wanted to be. This industry has given me the flexibility to do more with my family and to be there for them when they need me.

My clients would say that they know I truly care about them and that I am always willing and able to help solve whatever questions they have. I'm not afraid to track down the answers they need, whether dealing with doctors or insurance needs. I always respond promptly because I understand the importance of timely support.

I have been married to my husband for nine years, and together, we have a blended family with three teenage boys and three dogs. Our boys are very active, and my family keeps me motivated to succeed so I can keep these growing boys fed. My genuine passion is helping kids in our community who are less fortunate. In my free time, I enjoy watching my kids compete in their wrestling tournaments on the weekends.
