I was born and raised in Morehead City, North Carolina. My first summer jobs revolved around our local tourism industry, and I decided early that I’d pursue my own career in real estate someday.  I graduated from West Carteret High School and NC State’s Poole College of Management with a BSBA in Business-Financial Management.  Despite a love for all things coastal, I spent ten exciting years living and working as a Realtor in Raleigh.  I could not stay away forever, though, and now I’m lucky to call Carteret County home again.
