Before moving to beautiful British Columbia, I lived in Medicine Hat, Alberta where I obtained my Office Technology Certificate from Medicine Hat College in 2009. Immediately after graduating, I began working for Alberta Health Services – Seniors Health. Although I didn’t begin my career in real estate, the transition was a natural one for me because I grew up around the industry my entire life.
My dad worked as an agent for a time while I was a kid and my mom has been a Realtor® since 1985. Getting to see the other side of real estate, witnessing how deals come together and watching my parents help people achieve their homeownership dreams gave me a real appreciation for the industry.
My interest in real estate eventually pushed me to make a career shift and I began working with the Martin Velsen Real Estate Team in 2016. I take pride in making sure that every process for each transaction flows seamlessly from offer to closing. As the team’s client care specialist I spend a lot of time getting to know our clientele as I’m usually the first point of contact, and I keep our buyers and sellers updated throughout every step of their transaction.
I love how dynamic the real estate industry is. No two days are ever the same, so my work is always exciting. I’m passionate about meeting new clients, hearing their stories, and being able to be a part of those stories! It’s incredibly rewarding to be able to assist people in our community reach their goals. And I get to do it while working with a team that I love—AKA my work family.
