While earning a business degree at the University of Tennessee, I obtained my real estate license in 2003. I spent the next ten years managing a top producing real estate team that averaged over $25 million a year in sales. In addition to working with buyers and sellers, I became a broker and took on roles for training, developing, and advising other agents. In 2014 I decided to pave my own path as an agent and went into business on my own. Like my personality, I am a very easy-going Realtor. My philosophy is to take a soft, low pressure approach with my clients so they never feel rushed or pressured into buying or selling a home until they’re ready.
I am a Knoxville native with nearly 10 years of experience in the finance industry and I lead the Adrian Hall Mortgage Lending Team, a multi-million dollar producing team.
My finance background includes real estate law, consumer lending, mortgage processing and pre-underwriting, real estate investing, and financial coaching.
When I’m not helping you with your mortgage needs, I am teaching others financial literacy by speaking transparently about my money struggles. I’ve rebuilt my credit, got out of $50,000+ of debt, and learned how to prioritize people instead of profits.
