I can honestly say I've been lucky enough to have lived a life full of experiences. I'm a lawyer, an investor, a pilot, a former law enforcement officer, and mom to four great kids.

My greatest hope is that my children find happiness, not an occupation. What I do now serves my purpose. I help aspiring real estate investors, current inventors and experienced investors continue on their journeys. Sometimes that means I defend them in court. Other times it means I help them draft agreements or answer questions about how a strategy works. I also have the privilege of helping them get their lives in order with wills, trusts or powers of attorney.
