I am a lifetime resident of South Georgia, originally from Quitman, about 15 miles west of Valdosta where I grew up working with my father on our family farm. After graduating from Lowndes High School, I operated my own farming operation from 1997- 2000 while attending Valdosta State University. In 2001 I  accepted a position with a regional health care company and served in the position of corporate operations manager until 2005. In 2001, I purchased my first residential income property, and quickly realized my passion for real estate. I continued to invest in real estate and in 2005 I decided to make real estate my full time profession.

I joined Ron Borders Real Estate in February of 2006 and now serve as an Associate Broker with Ron Borders Commercial Real Estate Advisors specializing in Land, Commercial, and Investment properties in South Georgia and North Florida. I also serve as the Managing Broker for  Real Living Realty Advisors, a growing firm of 16 agents specializing in residential real estate in the greater Valdosta area.

I have 9 years of experience in real estate, with additional experience as a small business owner, corporate management, and, logistics. I am well equipped to understand the needs of my commercial clients. I have extensive knowledge of the Valdosta area and local economy.   

Growing up on a farm just west of Valdosta has given me a love for the outdoors and all that South Georgia has to offer. Over the past 30 years I have watched Valdosta grow from a small agriculture town into a thriving metropolitan area, and a regional economic and educational hub for South Georgia. I am excited to be a part of the area's promising future, and I feel blessed to be a part of an Industry that I am extremely passionate about.
