After moving to Alabama, Karen earned a bachelor's degree in Nursing and feels that her experience working as an intensive care nurse provided her with skills that she now uses daily in real estate negotiations, educating homebuyers and sellers, and really listening to what each client is looking for. As a seasoned real estate professional, she recognizes and values the trust her clients place in her and she strives to exceed their expectations.
Karen has been a top producing Realtor for 20 years and has earned multiple designations throughout the years to include obtaining a Brokers license and working as a Broker for a period of time and feels that continued education and staying relevant as markets change is extremely important.
