Kim has always loved real estate. She began planning for and then purchased her first home shortly after graduating from college. She benefitted by working with a very good real estate agent, who happens to be with First Weber too. That experience, and the other home purchases afterward, ignited Kim's continual interest in real estate.
Prior to becoming a professional Realtor®, Kim worked in public relations and marketing for over 20 years. Kim's background in marketing and communications gives her the ability to be a strong, confident advocate on behalf of her clients, as well as a creative marketer to get the most out of each listing she represents.
