Born, raised, and educated in the western suburbs of Chicago, Sharon received a Bachelor Degree in Computer Science with focus on Business and Mathematics at Dominican University, River Forest, IL. Leveraging her education, experience, and passion for technology, Sharon has enjoyed a very successful career within a diverse set of industries including: Financial/Banking, Telecommunications, Engineering, Healthcare, Human Resources, Benefits Management, Construction, and Real Estate.
In 1998, she moved to her mother’s hometown of Kannapolis, NC where her career focus shifted to project management in the financial industry. She earned the Project Management Professional PMP® designation, demonstrating her extensive knowledge and mastery of project management concepts, tasks, and techniques that are applicable across virtually any industry and methodology.
In 2015, Sharon decided to leave the corporate world to follow her life-long passion for real estate. After completing the most comprehensive certification program in the country, she founded, Rappizazz, a flourishing home staging and design business ranked in the “2017 Top 16 Home Staging Companies in Charlotte” according to Expertise LLC. Sharon also collaborated with her nephew to establish Fighting Chance Properties, a residential redevelopment and real estate investment company that buys, renovates, and resells properties in need of updates or more extensive renovations.
As part of her entrepreneurial journey, she became a licensed real estate broker in January 2016 and received the Strategic Pricing Specialist SPS® designation in 2017, designed to help real estate professionals minimize overpriced listings and better assist sellers when preparing to list their homes for sale.
After spending several years with larger real estate firms (Wilson Realty, Coldwell Banker, eXp Realty), Sharon decided to open her own boutique firm, LOOK Real Estate, in 2020. With her commitment to evolve and embrace the industry changes so that she can server her clients in the best possible way, Sharon decided to partner with EPIQUE Realty in late 2023. By joining forces, Sharon has access to leading edge technology, a nationwide network of like-minded real estate professionals, enhanced marketing strategies, and worldwide exposure for the properties she lists for sale. Sharon's clients have been very receptive to her more customer-driven and focused approach to real estate.
Sharon’s unique and constantly evolving experience in technology, home design, and the real estate industry sets her apart from most other real estate agents. By applying market trends, leveraging industry partnerships, and embracing technology, she provides leading-edge pricing and marketing strategies for her clients and has the skills necessary to navigate those strategies to ensure that they receive maximum return on their investment. Sharon specializes in the residential sale of properties, representing both buyers and sellers in Charlotte, NC and surrounding areas in NC and SC.
When taking time out for herself to unwind, Sharon enjoys spending time with her friends, family, and rescue dogs. She has a special place in her heart for animals and does what she can to support the people and organizations that dedicate themselves to rescuing them.
