About Me
I love my husband, my family, my friends, my country & the Lord!
Some of my favorite blessings call me Nana, but you can call me Debbie. I'm convinced that our sole/"soul" purpose on this earth is to be "in relationship with people". Real Estate is my little piece of this commitment in the puzzle.
I've had a lifetime devotion to studying, training & delivering Exceptional Customer Service! I love photography, graphic design, home staging & decorating. Understanding personalities & working with people feeds my spirit. All of those loves led me in 2008 to a career in REAL ESTATE that I think I'd danced around for a long time. I'm kind of old fashioned in that I still believe in the Golden Rule & commit daily to that, in my business.
Having lived all over the U.S. as a wife of a career Navy Master Chief, we raised 3 great kids & learned some of the secrets of life:
Find JOY wherever you are! Don't be afraid to seek adventure, learn new places & things and make new friends! Treat people as you'd like to be treated. Make sure the people that you love KNOW IT every day of their life! Trust in God in EVERYTHING because no matter what we sometimes think---He's "GOT THIS"!
​
As a resident of Citrus County since 2005, I feel almost like a NATIVE now (compared to transferring every 3-4 yrs. in the Navy). I tell folks every day that in my opinion, there is NO perfect place, this side of heaven, but Citrus Co. is pretty darn close! The Nature Coast of Florida, aptly named, is not your "typical Florida". Although we have some palm trees & we do have Ft. Island Trail Beach, it's old Florida in many ways. Many acres have been set aside in Preserve Land, and we like that! Seven Rivers meander their way through the county (many making their way to the Gulf), each offering their own "natural experience". Many of the rivers are spring fed, which is one of the reasons that the Manatee love to come back to Citrus County! We have adequate shopping & an abundance of restaurants. If you find yourself needing more entertainment & bustle, however, we're close enough to the metropolitan areas of Tampa & Orlando that you can go & "Play for the day", but I promise you that you will relish the thought that you will be able to come back HOME to the serenity of Citrus County!
​
Real Estate opportunities range anywhere from affordable snowbird nests to multi-million dollar waterfront estates--and SO much in between! There are several quality developments in the county. I have specialized my business in a great community called MEADOWCREST, but have a good knowledge of & service ALL areas of Citrus County! So, whatever your budget or dreams are, I'd be honored to assist you in your home search in Citrus County!
​
I look forward to speaking with you!
Debbie
