As a twenty plus year resident of Greenville, I currently live on Paris Mountain in the Pebble Creek neighborhood. Prior to moving to the mountain, I lived in both the North Main Area, Overbrook area, as well as the Augusta Road area where I renovated a condo at McDaniel Heights. I graduated from The Wyatt Real Estate Institute in 2005.  I was selected as one of Greenville’s Best and Brightest 35 and under by Greenville Magazine (when I was under 35) and have participated in The Greenville Chamber of Commerce's yearlong Leadership Greenville Class 42. I have previously been named one of the Top 99 Realtors on Twitter by WebsiteBox as well as one of the 32 Most Popular Realtor’s in America by Home Buyer Nation.  I have served on several boards and committees, including with Greenville Forward, yWca of Greenville, Greenville Rotaract, the Julie Valentine Center. I served as a Commissioner on the Greenville Municipal Elections Commission from 2015 - 2017 and as the Chairman of the Greater Greenville Chamber of Commerce Small Business Policy Council. Currently I serve on the Pendleton Place Board of Directors, a non-profit involved in housing homeless youth in Greenville. 2016 was a watershed year for me. In addition to opening my own real estate brokerage in May; I survived several strokes and a week in the GHS Neurological Trauma ICU in December. As a result of that experience, I was tapped to be the Patient Advocate on the SC DHEC Stroke Advisory Council, a council which was formed by the Legislature in 2011 to help adapt uniform policies statewide to ensure better care and a higher survival rate for those impacted by strokes. In addition, I serve on the GHS Stroke Advancement Council as well as on the board of Greenville Polo Classic which benefits the GHS Neurological Institute.
