Originally from Belize, I’ve made Houston Texas my home since 2002. With so many great neighborhoods and schools, my husband and I knew Houston would be our number one choice to buy a home and raise our children. After going through the process of buying a home, I wanted to share that same proud experience with others by becoming a Realtor. Today, with a background in business administration and insurance, I am providing excellent service to each client.

Many believe that one of the most important things in real estate is location, location, location. In my eyes, it’s good old fashion service, service, service. Coming from a country where tourism is one of its most successful industries, I’ve realized that hospitality and great service keep people coming back. Each client must walk away feeling completely satisfied with their real estate transaction.

I am completely committed to going that extra mile to ensure that each client receives a memorable experience. By maintaining the highest level of ethics and integrity, referrals and repeat business continuously revolve. I strive to keep all clients informed throughout every transaction. Exceeding each client’s expectation is a MUST!!
