Lake Norman Realty Inc. - Denver

Growing up on Long Island, I was fortunate to be surrounded by water, and I never imagined leaving. Yet, life often takes us in unexpected directions. When we discovered Lake Norman and moved to the “Denver of the East,” it was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. My three children thrived in this picturesque lake community, making lifelong friends and attending outstanding schools. Lake Norman quickly became our true home, and I’ve fully embraced the local spirit by getting involved in the community and contributing to its continued growth. With a background in education, I’ve developed a deep understanding of people, which naturally led to my dream profession as a Realtor®. My role allows me to continue fostering relationships and helping people, which has always been my passion, just in a new way. Buying or selling a home is one of the most significant investments you’ll make, and I am committed to guiding you through the process with care and expertise. I take pride in listening to your needs, answering every question, and working tirelessly to help you achieve your goals. I’ll be with you every step of the way, ensuring the experience is smooth, memorable, and stress-free. Since joining Lake Norman Realty, I’ve been honored as a top performer in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024. I was proud to receive the Eagle Award in 2023 and 2024 for having over $12 million in sales and new listings, as well as the Platinum Level Sales Award for more than $8 million in closed sales. Additionally, I’ve been recognized as the top sales agent and top closing agent on numerous occasions, with achievements in December 2020, February 2021, July 2022, and April 2023, April 2024, May 2024, June 2024 and July 2024. Among other accolades, I’ve received the Gold Level Sales Award (2021), the Listing Achiever Award, and invitations to the Outstanding Sales Production trip in 2021, 2023 and 2024. Building lasting relationships with my clients is my top priority, and I’m especially proud of earning the Rising Star Professional Award, Silver Level Sales Award, and Service Associate recognition in 2022. I’ve also served as an Advisory Council Associate for the Denver office over the past four years. To better serve my clients, I have pursued additional certifications and am now designated as a Seller Representative Specialist (SRS®), Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR®), Pricing Strategy Advisor (PSA), and Real Estate Negotiation Expert (RENE), all recognized by the National Association of Realtors® (NAR). I also teach new agents at LNR which not only keeps me abreast of all changes from NCREC but fulfills my passion for always learning and growing through teaching.

Hello! I have been a full time and top producer real estate broker since 2013 and pride myself in great customer service. Communication is the key to a successful transaction! I work diligently to provide a positive transaction whether you are buying or selling. I am excited to be part of the Lake Norman Realty Luxury team specializing in luxury properties in and around the lake. I currently reside in the wonderful community of Denver, NC but can offer my services in the surrounding areas. The lake community offers the best of both worlds, rest and relaxation or an all sports lake. Lake Norman region is in close proximity to the exciting uptown of Charlotte as well. I would be honored to help you in your next real estate transaction.

I'm a native of Lake Norman (I know, shocking!) and I'm thrilled to be raising my two kids here also. My husband is a new construction builder also in and around the LKN area. We spend our free time enjoying all this area has to offer including quick trips to the NC mountains and the coast. My daughter and I spend as much time as we can on the back of a horse and my husband and son golf and build things!
