Now to some of my background - I was born in Stuttgart, Germany, and grew up near Munich. Having an American father and German mother I was raised and educated bilingual - English and German - in both Germany and the United States, attending high school in Germany and Fort Myers and college in Massachusetts. My son Michael and I subsequently moved back to Lee County.

Back to the business at hand. No matter how large or small your real estate needs and desires may be, you can rest assured of being in good hands with me and RE/MAX. I will leave no stone unturned and go the extra mile to give you the best possible service. My commitment to the real estate profession goes beyond just "doing the job"  - it's my full time career and passion. To assure that I will be onethe cutting edge of developments in the real estate industry, I continuously strive to educate myself on the latest real estate trends and legislation. In me you have a full time REALTOR®, dedicated to integrity and professionalism. Each year I have been proud to maintain my 100% Club Membership within the RE/MAX network.

Part of my dedication to the real estate industry involves service to the REALTOR® Community at the Local, State and National level.
