I moved to Barrington with my family as a sophomore in high school, after which I attended Drake University and graduated with a degree in Advertising/Marketing. After graduating I spent 12 years in the Advertising Agency business in Client Services. Among my clients were McDonald’s, General Mills, Sears and Sunkist. I worked for Foote, Cone & Belding and DDB Needham Worldwide where I was named a Vice President. After my children were born, I took off a few years to be a stay at home mother. Then, in 1997 I decided to take my client service background and apply it to real estate. I currently live in Tower Lakes with my family. My hobbies include gardening, staging and cooking.
