I’m a realtor and real estate investor in Northwest Iowa. But, more importantly, I’m a wife and a mother of three.

My passion is for small businesses and small towns. And I can say, from experience, that real estate and real estate investing are under-utilized careers when it comes to building a legacy.

What does that legacy look like? For us, it looks like growing as much of our own food as possible, creating a home environment that is enriching for our children, building businesses that allow us to live a life we look forward to waking up to each morning..

In our digital age, a realtor no longer needs to go to a brick-and-mortar building to have a successful career. And this opens doors for so many others–like mothers who want to be home with their children and have a career, and students who want to avoid massive college debt–to get involved.
