The many years of being a homemaker, wife, mother, and grandmother has been the most fulfilling of my life. We are married 50 wonderful years.
My husband Jim and I have been Residential Real Estate Sales Associates with many years of experience selling properties and homes in Southern California and now in here in Idaho in the Treasure Valley. We generated our own business through networking and prospecting. Skillful working with property owners and buyers while developing successful business relationships with clients.
Working in fashion during my years at Nordstrom was an exciting time dressing people for the everyday lifestyle or that special event they would be attending.
During those many years I have volunteered for many groups, A-Team - Western Medical Center, raising money in Anaheim for innovative equipment. Diamond Bar Little League for 8 years, 3 of that as President of 1000 young people. Started a Challenger League for those who are disabled all over the community so they could enjoy baseball as well. Very proud to have Amigos De Los Ninos, of Orange County be a big part of the start of this program at our Diamond Bar League.
