One of the things I’ve appreciated most about my career is how much each chapter has prepared me for the next.

Years in healthcare leadership taught me to listen closely, ask thoughtful questions, and help people navigate important decisions. I bring those lessons into real estate every day—in serving my clients and supporting our agents at Realty85.

Thank you to Influential Women for this recognition. It means a great deal, and it brings to mind the colleagues, mentors, clients, and friends who have trusted and encouraged me along the way.

There’s meaningful work ahead, and I’m grateful to be doing it.

Three years ago, I began a new chapter in Tennessee real estate. Today, I’m excited to share that I’m stepping into the Principal Broker role for Realty85 in Tennessee! 🏡

But what does “Principal Broker” actually mean?

It means taking responsibility for the brokerage’s operations, supervising its agents, and helping ensure our work meets the professional and legal standards that protect our clients. For me, it also means mentoring agents, being available when the questions get difficult, and building an environment where people can grow with confidence.

On September 25, I celebrated my three-year anniversary as a Tennessee Affiliate Broker—meeting the experience requirement for my path to broker licensure. After completing the required education, I passed both portions of the broker exam on October 7 and have now officially earned my Tennessee Broker license.

Now, I’m working with Realty85 to build our Tennessee presence as the brokerage’s 12th state!

After more than 20 years in healthcare leadership, this chapter brings together so much of what I love: developing people, solving problems, serving others, and building something with purpose.

Realty85’s “Agent for Agent” philosophy speaks to that vision. I want our agents to have the guidance, support, and accountability they need to build businesses they’re proud of—and deliver excellent care to their clients.

I’m grateful for the people who have encouraged me along the way and for God’s guidance through every step.

“Lead with intention, share with purpose, and the rest will follow.”

Here’s to what we’re building together in Tennessee.

Built differently. Intentionally.

Well… apparently Scout remembered before I did. 😂

This morning, ChatGPT reminded me that today marks THREE YEARS since I became a licensed real estate agent in Tennessee.

Three years. ❤️🏡

And what a three years it has been.

Real estate wasn’t the beginning of my professional journey — it was a new chapter built on more than 20 years of leadership, operations, client service and business experience. I came into this industry knowing how to lead, solve problems, negotiate through complicated situations and take care of people — and then quickly learned that real estate would challenge me to use every bit of that experience in entirely new ways.

Three years later, I’m still learning. Still growing. Still building. And more excited about what’s ahead than I was when I started.

This milestone feels especially meaningful because real estate is not an easy business. Markets change. Businesses change. And those first years teach you very quickly that success takes much more than getting a license.

One thing I know now that I didn’t fully understand three years ago:

Who you build with matters.

The leadership matters.
The culture matters.
The tools matter.
The economics matter.
And having people around you who genuinely want to see you succeed matters.

That’s a big part of why I’m so excited about what we’re building with Realty85 in Tennessee.

So today I’m celebrating three years — and keeping the next chapter just a little bit under wraps. 😉 There are still a few things I have to earn first.

But if you’re a newer agent wondering whether you can make this career work, or an experienced agent who’s realizing you may need a different environment to keep growing, I’d love to talk.

Sometimes the next chapter doesn’t require leaving real estate.

It just requires finding the right place to build it.
