I’m thankful for the honor to help people in our community every day when they need to buy or sell a home. I’m thankful for my teammates who go above and beyond to exceed the expectations of our clients, and for those amazing clients who turn into friends.

I am so thankful for my family. I have a loving husband and three beautiful children. I’m thankful for their kindness, energy, and joy they bring me each day.

I am so thankful for the valuable relationships I have built with my colleagues and clients as a real estate agent.

Recipe I Recommend: Best Sweet Potato Casserole

I am thankful for my family and friends and I am thankful for the trust my clients have in me to help them find their perfect home.

I always make this as an appetizer for Thanksgiving:
Goat Cheese Squash Dip

• 2 blocks cream cheese, softened
• 4 oz goat cheese, softened
• 3 green onions, minced
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 tsp of sea salt
• 1/2 tsp cracked pepper
• 1 small acorn squash

Cut acorn squash in half. Place both pieces of the squash on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 30 minutes at 400 degrees. Leave one half to use as a bowl. Scoop out 1/2 cup of flesh from the other piece of cooked squash. Mash it with a fork. Set aside.

In a mixer combine cream cheese, goat cheese, green onions, garlic, sea salt, pepper and 1/2 cup cooked, mashed squash. Mix until combined. Spoon mixture into the ‘bowl’ piece of squash. Place it on a baking sheet and bake for 20 min at 350 degrees.

I am so thankful for Iris, my daughter, that she is such a great baby. I am so lucky that she is so easy going and happy. I love watching her grow up and seeing how she’s changing day by day. I am just so thankful that this year I became her mom.

I am thankful for my clients. My clients have been so amazing and have graciously allowed me to bring along Iris when I needed too. At this point she is my showing assistant and everyone loves her.
