What are you passionate about, and how do you use your voice/talent to make a difference?
As a real estate professional, I’m passionate about making an impact for our clients and community members by elevating the real estate experience, as well as the overall community experience. New and current community members want to be proud of the place they call home – not only their physical house but also the community they live, work, and play in! I’m passionate about elevating that client experience in Siouxland. We want our team to be synonymous with integrity and putting the client experience above all else.
As a business owner at RE/MAX, my passion is pouring into our agents and helping them build their personal businesses. One of our mission statements is, “Achieving our goals by helping others achieve theirs.” We lift up and encourage our agents and clients to create a better environment for everyone to do well together.
Finally, I’m passionate about being a voice for Siouxland at the state level, which has led me to be involved in various ways with the Iowa Association of Realtors. Real estate impacts everything in our economy, and it is vitally important to have representation from Siouxland in Des Moines, where decisions are being made. I want to ensure the state’s vision includes what is best for our local community!
What is your vision for the future of Siouxland?
As mentioned above, I have a passion and vision for elevating the community experience here in Siouxland. I believe we can take some big city concepts and bring them to our local community in a unique way that works for our home town. I envision continued support for small businesses while expanding the options for new concepts that don’t exist in our area.
What are you doing to make that happen?
I’ve been a part of some major renovation projects to beautify vacant buildings in Sioux City with quality-of-life amenities. Each project (small or large) that we do is a step in the right direction to improve our community!
How can people help you make that happen?
I again refer to one of my statements above – “Achieving our goals by helping others achieve theirs.” Supporting one another in our goals and visions is the best thing to make big things happen! We can all do well and elevate our community together.
