I’m currently employed at Michelin of North America. I’ve been there for almost 11 years. I recently joined the Marchant Real Estate team to learn from experienced realtors in the area. I plan to network with plenty of people in hopes of growing in this everchanging industry. I love meeting and speaking with people to learn more about them. I enjoy watching sports with friends, cooking with family, attending my kids’ games, and playing golf.
