Welcome to my Active Rain blog site. I'm so happy that you came to visit! Some of you who are checking in may already know me, but for those of you who don't I'll give you a little bio.
I was born in southern Indiana, and no, I didn't grow up on a corn farm. I was a city girl in Evansville (pop. 125,000). At age 18, I left for Vanderbilt University in Nashville, TN to study Civil Engineering. I had to graduate with that major because my dad told me he didn't think I could! (He was a master at reverse psychology!) After graduation I decided to head west when I was offered a job in Redwood City, CA at a small engineering research firm where I worked for about three years.
I met my husband-to-be, Dan, traveled for four months in Southeast Asia and Nepal, and then let Dan talk me into getting my masters in Civil Engineering at SJSU with him so that he could copy my homework.
Well, to summarize a long story, we married, I worked in civil engineering for three years, we had two beautiful children who we both adore, and then I began my career in real estate.
But I will say that I'm passionate about selling real estate! When I made the switch from engineering to real estate, I was a little sheepish about admitting that I was joining the ranks of the not very esteemed Realtors. But my estimation of Realtors has risen immensely and some of the people that I admire a great deal are, you guessed it, Realtors! And not only do I love working with people and fitting them into the home of their dreams, but I feel that I'm raising the bar on the quality of the service that all buyers and sellers deserve!
