More About Us

Thank you for taking time to learn a little about me, I look forward to meeting you.

My Life Philosophy - \"Be kind, own my actions, create positive energy, help make the world a better place for and give back to others.\"

I was not born in America, but am a proud American. Relocating from South Africa to the USA in the early 1990’s, brought me into the real estate world in 1994 with a New Mexico Associate Broker Real Estate License. Since this date, I along with my team members have assisted thousands of clients in selling and buying homes, land, farms & ranches, and commercial properties.
Providing  timely relocation guidance, advice, and support to buyers and sellers is incredibly important to me.
Christian values, perseverance, a positive attitude, combined with a desire to invest time and knowledge in others, have been instrumental in inspiring me to own my own brokerages and to encourage and train other REALTORS to deliver top notch services in every transaction. I am passionate about reinvesting my knowledge through coaching, providing support, educating and on the job skills training to other real estate agents who are ready to grow their real estate businesses.

When asked what experiences have shaped me into who I am today, this is what I would share.
I have been molded and shaped by God through life experiences and choices. From being raised in a very close knit family and farming community, and having many family adventures (like sailing aboard a 45 ft. trimaran) and life experiences (like completing a 109 km iconic cycling race, participating in a foreign exchange program, working in the fashion industry, and being part of a band), I have been truly blessed.
All of this has provided me with a unique set of communication, and life skills. Of all my accomplishments, I am proudest about being \"Mom\" to 3 beautiful girls and being called \"Mimi\" by a growing family of grandbabies.


I am honored and proud to be a part of the real estate transactions my team assists on.  

Whether you need guidance with your real estate transaction, or a real estate career, I would love to help you. Lets explore the possibilities.
