I moved to Charlotte County in 1980 from southeast Wisconsin. I returned to college in 1982 while working full time and raising my kids, and graduated from the University of South Florida. I have had my real estate license since 1987 and am also a Professional Engineer which makes me very familiar with County regulations and the permitting process.  My husband and I have done land development, which consisted of 3 subdivisions and a commercial building here in Englewood, and have also built three of our homes here in Englewood.  My hobbies include arts and crafts, and playing a little golf.
