Team Leader: Graves Realty Group
Listing Specialist, Buyer's Agent, Relocation Expert, SRES® (Seniors Real Estate Specialist)
Professionalism, integrity, and a thoughtful, consultative approach are the qualities my clients most often use to describe working with me. At Graves Realty Group, our motto is “Commitment Beyond Sold!”—a promise reflected in the fact that each year, 85% of the families we serve are either repeat clients or referrals. For us, clients aren’t transactions—they’re family. After earning my Business degree from UNC–Chapel Hill (Go Heels!), I made Charlotte my home more than 20 years ago. As a native North Carolinian, I take great joy in welcoming others to this vibrant region and helping them discover its hidden gems. Whether you’re selling a home because your family has outgrown it, downsizing as life enters a new chapter, or relocating to the area, my team and I specialize in making the process seamless while maximizing your home’s value. Beyond real estate, I cherish life’s simple joys—taking walks, crocheting, writing, and traveling with family. My husband and I are grateful for two wonderful children who light up our lives, and our mini Bernedoodle, Roskey, adds an extra ray of sunshine to our days.
I live by the daily motto: “Smile more today than I did yesterday!” One of my favorite reminders comes from Dr. Maya Angelou: “People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but they will never forget how you made them feel.”
