I'M SO EXCITED & I HAVE TO TELL YOU WHY!

When I first joined Active Rain a few years ago, I had no idea to the extent that this blogging thing would be. Not only have I gained new clients, I now have a new agent who has joined me all thanks to Active Rain! What an added bonus!

I met Pippa right here on Active Rain. Even though we live and work in The Woodlands, our paths had never crossed. We both subscribed to one another's blog and began our online friendship. I met Pippa about a year ago face to face when we met for coffee.

I immediately knew that she was as great as I imagined her to be! At that time, she was happy where she was and I just left her with, "if you ever decide to look for another Broker, give me a call!" I just knew that this was the type of first-class person that I wanted on my team!

So.....officially TODAY Pippa has joined Chevaux Group! I am SO excited to welcome Pippa into our fold! She will be a fantastic addition to an already vibrant group! Not only is she a top-notch blogger, she is also a fun, witty, intelligent woman!

Pippa, welcome to Chevaux Group! Jim, Tiffany, Susie and I are so proud to have you join us!
