I grew up in a home filled with compassion. My childhood home also served as a foster care residence for mentally handicapped women, which shaped my deep sense of empathy and community.
I have a huge soft spot for animals. During the pandemic, I stayed in China and made sure the stray cats around my building were fed and cared for.
I’m a purposeful traveler. I’ve volunteered abroad in places like a dog rescue in Sri Lanka and a self-sustaining farm outside of Shanghai, which helped me connect with communities in meaningful ways.
I’ve lived a life of contrasts. From small-town Michigan to the heart of Shanghai, I’ve developed a strong appreciation for both quiet moments and cultural adventure.
I love diving into all kinds of video games—from creative building in Minecraft to action-packed titles like Fortnite, Borderlands, and Diablo. Gaming gives me a fun, immersive way to relax and connect with others.
I used to teach fitness classes in China. Living overseas gave me the chance to share my passion for wellness while experiencing a completely different culture.
With over 20 years of experience in real estate, office management, and hospitality, I’ve learned the value of creating a calm, welcoming environment where people feel genuinely seen and cared for. Connecting with others has always been at the heart of both my work and my life.
I grew up in Flushing, Michigan, and later spent several years living in China, where I taught fitness classes, volunteered on a self-sustaining farm, and looked after stray cats during the pandemic.
In 2023, I also had the opportunity to volunteer at a dog rescue in Sri Lanka for a few weeks that cares for over 1,500 dogs — an experience that deepened my passion for compassion and community.
Now that I’m back in the Clarkston area I’ve always loved, I feel grateful to be the first person clients meet when they walk through the door. I do my best to create a thoughtful, elevated experience that makes everyone feel welcome from the moment they arrive.
