I was born and raised in the beautiful Mississippi River Valley and truly appreciate how lucky I am to have grown up on the shores of the river. Currently I live in Pepin with my husband Ron and our two dogs, Bella and Bucky. We have two daughters both married with families who both reside in the valley. I’ve lived and worked in this area during the span of my life and as circumstances have it, I find myself in the next chapter of my life. After thinking about a new career, I decided to talk with my friend Robin Gwaltney who is the team leader at the Gwaltney Group. I made the decision to acquire my real estate license in Minnesota and Wisconsin. Our goal has been to help the Gwaltney Group develop a strong real estate presence in MN around the Wabasha and Lake City areas as well as across the river in WI from Alma to Maiden Rock. The towns and villages in this area all feature great dining experiences and culture such as the Flyway Film Festival and the Fresh Art Tour, and local celebrations like SeptOberfest and Water Ski Days just to name a few. I have friendships and bonds in every community whether it be the locals that have lived here for generations, those that moved here to enjoy peace and quiet from the big city life, the snowbirds, and of course the weekender’s lucky enough to have a second home here in our beautiful valley. I really understand life here and as a REALTOR® would be honored to help you find your perfect home in one of these small towns and villages. Whether upsizing, downsizing, or new to the area, I’m here to offer you great service with a quality team by my side! Whether it be open houses, marketing, staging, or professional photography, our reliable team can do what many individual REALTORS® cannot. In addition, my being licensed in both Minnesota and Wisconsin offers you a unique benefit as most realtors are licensed in just one state. With your continued support I look forward to working with you in your next real estate adventure!
