A little about me...
...in case you were wondering
I began my real estate career in the 90's while living in Lake Arrowhead (Southern CA mountains), after the youngest of "My Three Sons" graduated--he's now 31! I've never looked back. My favorite part of this business is helping people through one of the biggest and most important purchases of their lives. And along the way, I have met many wonderful people. Now what else could I ask for? Life is good!
Before I became a Realtor, I actually did have another life. I was a Wife, Mother, Home-maker and worked outside the home. During my "younger" days, I was employed by TRW and NORTHRUP, both in their electronics divisions.
...and a couple of other things you might want to know about me:
- My very first job was at Winchell's Donut House in Torrance, CA. It really was ONE of my favorite jobs! And I never gained a pound eating those treats ('course I was very young).
- My true passion,however, is writing. I enjoy writing essays, profiles on interesting people, non-fiction, fiction and opinion pieces for local newspapers. I have had my work published in dozens of national magazines and local newspapers.
...and a lot about Lake Arrowhead
