When we think of a dream job, very few of us think “Funeral Director” however this is the job that I love. I have an extensive background in dealing with estate settlement & planning. By helping people at the worst time of their lives, I feel I can make a difference.  We offer a low cost green approach to cremation & burial by providing full funeral arrangements in the comfort of family’s homes.

I have a passion for seniors and love when I can help them transition to retirement living. I have a sense of drive every day that is attributed to what I experienced with my father 15 years ago when he was diagnosed with dementia. My goal always is to educate and assist families during this sometimes difficult decision. I love what I do and I think it shows!

From the days where I would build forts in my grandparent’s living room, or watch Lawrence Welk with them, I have always had a sincere place in my heart for seniors. As a certified Senior Real Estate Specialist, it brings me joy to work with those types of people that I have such respect and compassion for. Your home is often your biggest investment. I provide clients with the respect, patience and compassion they need while striving to ensure they get the best value for their home, with the least amount of stress. I still visit past clients who are seniors and now in care. With Engel & Volkers as my brokerage, everyone receives luxury service and care, no matter the price of their home! Please call me for your complimentary consultation .
