| REALTOR® |

It's a wonderful day at RE/MAX and here in Centre County and Happy Valley!! I've been blessed to call Central PA my home since 2004 when I relocated here from Phila.  I married an amazing hometown guy, the 6th Grade Instrumental Band Director for SCASD, my parents live five minutes away from us and I get to be part of an amazing community. I feel so very blessed with where my journey has brought me.

My dad enlisted in the Air Force the year I was born. It set the tone for the first part of my life, being continually uprooted, and being far from family and friends and the security that can bring. It presented both challenges and lifelong opportunities.

Besides PA, I have lived in Washington State, Idaho, Louisiana, Hawaii, and Colorado. I've lived in busy and loud cities as well as small and rural areas. I've met a wide array of people throughout all of my travels, and have always taken care of others, whether that was part of my job or not.

So, getting into Real Estate and making my clients feel at home since 2014 was a natural fit for my customer service background. It's exciting because every day is different, the market is ever changing, technology is always evolving, and trends are constantly updating. People will always want a place to call their own.  A safe space to lay their head at night. Somewhere to grow their roots and I love being a part of  that!!

In addition to Real Estate, I enjoy being involved with my church, Faith United Methodist, in Bellefonte, as well as travel, especially to the Adirondacks every Summer for hiking, canoeing, and boating. We are avid history buffs and enjoy studying battlefields. For indoor activities, I love reading and doing puzzles.

I look forward to helping you in every way I can. Please allow my knowledge and know-how to guide you through the buying, selling, or investing process. There are so many things to consider and you need someone who has your best interests at heart. I can't wait to hear from you. Let's chat.

All the best to you and yours, now and always.

  • Ryan was my agent for buying a house. They took care of almost everything including small details like setting up an account with the borough for water/sewage/trash. Buying a house can be stressful but with them it was no problem at all!

  • Mariam helped me purchase a home and she was awesome in helping me with the offer negotiating the terms of repair from the house inspection and having the home owner fix all the main issues before we agreed to buy the home. She was very professional in helping us out no matter what the time of day. We would talk at 12am 6am 8am 3pm 8pm or 11pm. If needed, she was there for any questions or concerns. Very satisfied and will refer to future home buyers.
