With over two decades of experience as a licensed Realtor since 2000 and a loan officer since 1995, I bring a comprehensive understanding of the real estate and lending industries to every class I teach. As the owner and broker of a small boutique brokerage in the Twin Cities, I have firsthand knowledge of the nuances and challenges faced by buyers, sellers, and real estate professionals in today’s dynamic market.

I hold an undergraduate degree in Ethnic Studies, a master’s degree in Advocacy and Political Leadership, and I am currently a doctoral candidate specializing in Adult Education and Public Policy. My academic background, combined with extensive professional experience, uniquely equips me to engage adult learners through diverse teaching methods tailored to meet different learning styles—whether kinetic, visual, or auditory—to ensure concepts are clear and applicable at every level.

My teaching philosophy centers on advocacy and empowerment, helping real estate professionals not only master transactional skills but also develop the leadership and communication abilities necessary to advocate effectively for their clients. I focus on practical, real-world scenarios, encouraging critical thinking to navigate complex situations such as negotiations, financing choices, and market analysis.

I am passionate about helping adults learn in ways that resonate with their experiences and enable them to apply knowledge immediately. Whether guiding first-time homebuyers, seasoned agents, or industry professionals, I strive to create a supportive and interactive learning environment that fosters confidence and success in the real estate field.
