More Than a Realtor: Your Partner in the Grayling Community

Thank you for stopping by! I’ve been helping families navigate the Northern Michigan real estate market since 1997. I started this journey at just 20 years old, and what began as a career quickly turned into a lifelong passion for the people and the river that make our region so special.


Honest Guidance on the AuSable

Whether you’re looking for a quiet retreat along the AuSable River or a home in the heart of Grayling, I’m here to be your strongest advocate. My dedication earned me the 2019 Realtor of the Year (PBBR) award, and more recently, I was honored to be named Grayling’s 2024 Citizen of the Year. My approach is simple: I provide the "un-sugarcoated" truth and clear communication so you can make the best decision for your future.

Heart for the Community

I am deeply invested in the growth and traditions of our town. My work on various boards keeps me at the center of Grayling's future:

  • Local Leadership: I’m proud to serve as a Board Member for the Grayling DDA, the Grayling Chamber of Commerce, and the Miss AuSable River Festival.
  • Conservation & Events: I am a Board Member for the Headwaters Land Conservancy and serve as the Co-Chair of the world-famous AuSable River Canoe Marathon.
  • Service & Tradition: From the Grayling Thanksgiving Day Meal Crew and Commission on Aging to my years supporting Grayling High School Sports, I believe in showing up for my neighbors.

I’m also honored to be a 2026 Volunteer of the Year Nominee, a recognition that reinforces why I love being so involved in our town’s success.

Life in the North

When I’m not at the closing table, I’m living the lifestyle I help my clients find. My husband Arron and I raised our four children here, and we spend our time camping, fishing, and chasing sunsets over the AuSable.

Whether you’re buying or selling, my goal is to make the process smooth, informed, and successful. Let’s find your home in Grayling.
