was born and raised in Lancaster County and attended Penn Manor and Lancaster Mennonite Schools. My dad and grandpa had started a hardware store together in 1975, and throughout my life I spent as much time at the store as I could and my heart for small businesses and customer service was fostered there. I graduated from Indiana University of PA with a BA in History and pursued a number of career options after college but could never really find the right fit.

A few years after college I moved to Maine and made the most of my 5 years there, exploring the beautiful coastline, the breathtaking mountains, and everything in between. I earned my real estate license in Maine and then decided I wanted to start my career back home in Lancaster and became licensed in Pennsylvania soon after. After a few years working as an agent in Lancaster, I learned about Life Changes and the “Pay it Forward” program and felt a really strong pull that this was the direction I was headed. I am so grateful to work with a real estate group that prioritizes clients and community. My favorite part of this job is meeting great people and helping them navigate the process to get to their goals—and seeing how buyers transform their properties!

I live in Washington Boro with my fiancé Clayton and our Boston Terrier Jessi in a little cottage we recently renovated top to bottom.
