I was born in Victoria, BC and grew up in Saskatoon, Sk.  My mother has always been my role model. She was and has always been very hard working and goal orientated.  She always pushed me and my two sisters to never give up, work hard and focus on all goals set.  She raised me and my two sisters on her own while working two jobs.  I always had a competitive attitude in everything that I attempted, so she decided to put me in a competitive sport at a young age, which was judo.  I absolutely loved it and trained to be the best.  I became National champion at a young age and won the Canada Games shortly after.  She pushed me even harder and moved me to the National training center in Montreal to train with the best.

       I lived in and around Montreal for 5-6 years while competing at a high level and was lucky to travel around the world.  I won many competitions and my mother always supported me.  I also went to school just outside Montreal studying Health Science and working part time at a telemarketing company.  I realized shortly after working for the telemarketing company that I loved selling.  I was excited to go to work and focus on sales.

      In 2004/2005 I decided to move back to Saskatoon and go to University.  I was focusing on finishing my education at that time.  I studied Kinesiology briefly while still competing and working part time.  In 2006 I had my first child and decided to pursue a passion that I realized I always had, which was sales. I started studying Real Estate in 2006.  I studied Real Estate while saving money and working at the Bank of Montreal and shortly after Affinity Credit Union.  In June of 2008 I finally finished all the courses required and became licensed as a Real Estate Agent in Saskatoon, SK.  It was a huge accomplishment.  I still continued to work at the credit union until I could fully start in March of 2010 once I had enough money saved up to jump into what would become something that I absolutely loved and had a huge heart for... Real Estate!  I interviewed many brokerages and decided on RE/MAX.  It seemed like the only choice for me.  I wanted to be the best and work with the best.  I studied hard to learn as fast as I could as time was of the essence.  I enrolled in the Buffini course as I was told it was the best program for new agents.  I made sure that I never missed a class.  My first year in 2010 I was awarded the Executive Club Award, which was a great accomplishment and rewarding.  The next year in 2011 I was awarded the 100% Club Award, which was a level above.  I was ecstatic.  In 2012 I had my second child and decided to take some time off as I felt I could not give 100% to my clients as I had the years previous.  I took a few years to focus on family.  In 2014 I realized that I needed to be back in the Career that I loved and the field that makes me happy knowing I am helping others.  I worked hard in December of 2014 to build my business back and this year so far in 2015 I have been a Top Producer and I am on track for the 100% Club award at the end of the year.  I am a full time agent with the RE/MAX Saskatoon North office specializing in Residential Real Estate for Saskatoon and the surrounding areas’. I most recently also became a proud member of the Select Referrals –RE/MAX group.  I do believe that my past clients, friends and family are my biggest advocates and have helped me get to the place I am today.  I couldn’t be happier.  I absolutely love what I do, which is helping others buy and sell their homes.

       My catch phrase is the Moto that I learned from my mother - "Working Hard for You!" and that is exactly what I do.  Each day I strive towards the little goals that I set and I have an attitude of never giving up.  

There are aspects of real estate sales that seem pretty simple. There are many elements of a smooth transaction, however, that are complicated and daunting. 

I can help you with every aspect of buying or selling your home because I’m experienced, because I’m professional . . .and because I care.
