After a successful career in Management, I then decided in 1997 to join the New Orleans Police Department, where I began my next career. I “protected and served” the City of New Orleans for 24 years in the Uptown area, Algiers, Special Operations Division and Police Headquarters. I also worked part time as a Superdome Traffic Officer, and retired from my career as a Senior Police Officer in 2021. As my retirement from NOPD came closer, I began to think of the next stage and a career similar to public service that I could begin after retirement. Real Estate was the first thing that came to mind and seemed to be the perfect fit. My desire to continue to serve the community and be a guiding light to those in need of making their homeownership dreams come true, was strong and soon led me to acquire my Real Estate License. I received my license in 2014 from Donaldson Educational Services and I became a REALTOR®. I kept myself abreast of any updates and educated myself of any changes to the real estate industry while I maintained my career as an officer. I also helped some of my family and friends become first time homeowners.
Some of my interests and hobbies include traveling, watching HGTV, decorating, surfing the internet for dream homes, shopping, gardening, renovating, and most important, spending time with my family.
I am a dedicated hard worker, Motivated and willing to do everything to succeed in making the people I work for and with to be successful. I am Optimistic, hopeful, and confident that if you trust me with your needs that I will meet your needs. I believe, with my Vision I will give you the Excellent service that you deserve.
