I was raised in Portage, Michigan by two wonderful immigrant parents from the Netherlands. After graduating from MSU with a Bachelor of arts in Interior Design, I worked in sales in the home furnishing’s industry. Eventually, it became obvious to me that I was ready for a change. Because gardening is a passion of mine, I decided to start a gardening business, gardening comforted my soul. After 13 years of loving and growing my gardening business the time had come for me to sell the business and move on. I took a few years off to enjoy some “me” time.

Deciding I was not ready to be “retired”, and considering all the things that I enjoy, I realized real estate would be my next calling. Coldwell Banker seemed to be the perfect fit for me!

On a personal note… I have a dedicated husband who is an incredibly supporting man and father of two magnificent boys. Our 12 year old will be going into 7th grade at East Grand Rapids Middle School and our 17 year old will be a 4th year senior at Culver Academies.  We love to travel, fish, ski and love on our dogs.
