I’ve spent my entire life in Tucson, and, along the way, I’ve moved more times within the same county than most sane people would do (25!). All of that moving not only gave me firsthand knowledge of Tucson’s neighborhoods, but also made me a personal expert on the challenges and emotions that come with relocating. I understand what it feels like to stress over the intricasies of packing up a whole life (or several) while scouring home listings and trying to get the timing just right. In fact, I think I have it down to a science at this point, so feel free to ask me for tips!
My roots run deep here. My grandmother and late grandfather were business owners in Gallup, NM before packing up the whole operation and bringing it here in the 1970s. As a child, my parents built custom homes in the North Tucson and Oro Valley areas. I attended Salpointe Catholic High School, where my friends were spread across every corner of Tucson, giving me firsthand knowledge of the character of each area of town. Later, at the University of Arizona, I built even more connections and appreciation for the city I love. I absolutely love the historic homes in that area!
Prior to becoming a real estate agent, I served the community as a personal trainer, an operations/customer service manager, and an elementary school teacher. The latter two were both within Oro Valley town limits, and allowed me to get to know the people, town code, and the schools, on a firsthand level.
I believe there are only a few other agents who can say they truly know this community and the home building/buying/selling process on such a personal level, from so many different perspectives. This insight and expertise, coupled with my passion for real estate, allows my clients to have the best experience possible.
Whether you're looking to move right now, or you're simply interested in asking questions with no plans on moving any time soon, I am happy to help. When you are ready, however, you can know that the right agent will be unlocking Tucson for you.
Tierra Antigua Realty
Buying or selling a home is more than a transaction — it’s a major life moment. That’s why you deserve more than just an agent who unlocks doors. You deserve a local partner who knows the Tucson area inside and out, communicates clearly, and is committed to helping you achieve the right price, every time.
As a Tucson native, I bring lifelong knowledge of our community to my work as a REALTOR® with Tierra Antigua Realty. My family has been part of the Tucson business community since 1976, and my parents built custom homes across Tucson. I’ve also lived in more than 20 homes right here in Pima County, which makes me not just an expert on the local market, but someone who truly understands the challenges and emotions of moving.
Before real estate, I worked as a teacher and as a local operations manager in Oro Valley. Both roles sharpened my communication, problem-solving, and people-first skills — qualities I now bring to every client relationship. Whether you’re buying, selling, or investing, my mission is simple: to protect your bottom line while making the process as seamless and stress-free as possible.
When you work with me, you’re not just getting an agent. You’re gaining a trusted advisor, a skilled negotiator, and a neighbor who genuinely cares about your success. As a fiduciary to my clients and someone who will be helping you with what may be the biggest financial transaction you'll ever make, I do not take that responsibility lightly.
I look forward to helping you unlock your next chapter here in the Tucson area.
