What is your vision for Knoxville 10 years from now?
I'd love to see Knoxville's infrastructure grow with our booming city and for more affordable housing options to make homeownership possible for more people.
What is Knoxville's Best Kept Secret?
I might be a little biased - since I have the honor of helping people relocate to our incredible city - but with low taxes, excellent schools, being an "easy place to live," and the most welcoming community around, the true gem of Knoxville is without a doubt our PEOPLE.
What would you do to strengthen Knoxville?
If I could do anything to strengthen Knoxville it would be to create more affordable housing to allow for more home ownership.
What is your favorite Knoxville memory?
Being born and raised in Knoxville there are so many core memories - - at the top of the list would be the birth of my boys and meeting my husband.
What is your favorite book or what book is currently on your nightstand?
The Bible
What is the best advice you have received from a mentor, and who was that mentor?
My dad was my hero, my greatest mentor in life and in real estate and always said, "The best training is experience and always remember that your reputation is everything."
What advice would you give to your 16 year old self?
