" My understanding of space, design and decor, along with my knowledge of architectural styles, features and building typologies, allows me to provide clients, especially first-time home buyers, with the information they need to make the best decision for them."

My architectural degree, design background, and extensive experience leave me uniquely equipped to guide buyers on their real estate journey. I have designed green, modern and luxury homes. I have a keen awareness of a variety of residential  building technologies and systems.  My understanding of space, design and decor, along with my knowledge of architectural styles, features and building typologies, allows me to provide clients, especially first-time home buyers, with the information they need to make the best decision for them. 

When I'm not serving my clients, I can be found serving in my local church or in the Asheville community. Extending hospitality is important to me; hosting friends and family is one of my favorite things to do. I also really enjoy working with my hands. Relaxation to me is refurbishing an old piece of furniture or creating an item of clothing from scratch. The satisfaction of bringing something I had envisioned to life is what keeps me going, even after an epic fail. On lazy days I prefer to snuggle up with a good biography and some hot tea. Otherwise, keeping up with the latest trends in design, home decor, architecture and gluten free/dairy free food is always a treat. 

My husband and I enjoy experiencing different cultures and natural landscapes. Whether we’re driving to explore a small, scenic town nearby – of which Western North Carolina has many – or flying overseas to immerse in a completely different culture, we treasure the opportunities to literally widen our horizons. But we’re always happy to return to Asheville, amazed that we get to call these mountains home. The mountains drew us to this area; they, along with the people we’ve met and grown to love in Asheville, are what keep us here.
