I have worked for Genisys Credit Union since 2005 as a Branch Manager.  In 2016, I was assigned to the Oxford Branch.  I was very excited to get into the Oxford area.  My wife of 23 years is from Oxford, and I from Orion.  We now live in on the edge of both communities in Oakland Twp. where I serve as a Oakland Twp. Parks Commissioner also.  I have a son and daughter both recently graduated.  I am also a member of the Lake Orion Knights of Columbus and attend St. Joseph's Catholic Church since infancy.  I love the Oxford area and feel fortunate to be an ambassador for the chamber and community at large.

I am your local Insurance Mom with the "Michigan Only" Farm Bureau Insurance. My office is located in the heart of our beautiful Downtown. I am a proud mother of Oxford students, an Oxford resident, and proud member of my community as a whole. I dedicate my time to my family, my business, and giving back to my surroundings.

My office specializes in helping families and businesses with their protection needs for anything from life, auto, home, business, liability insurance, and more!

Co-Owner of Curtis Insurance Agency.   With 30+ years of insurance experience and knowledge, I enjoy helping clients find the best insurance coverage to fit their lifestyle.

As an Ambassador for the Oxford Chamber of Commerce, I'm excited to bring my passion for helping people achieve their dreams within our community. As a dedicated realtor, I take pride in guiding clients through the process of selling their homes or finding their dream home. I also serve on the Board of Oxford-Addison Youth Assistance, supporting local youth and families through counseling, scholarships, and mentorship programs. After a 37-year career in the automotive manufacturing industry and moving from state to state, we chose to settle in Oxford in June 2023. We quickly realized this was where we wanted to stay and call this community home.

When I'm not working, I stay busy as a wife, mother of three daughters and one son, and grandmother to nine grandchildren. I enjoy spending time with family, traveling, gardening, and exploring the Polly Ann Trail and our county parks. I support our local pet rescues with food and bedding when needed, volunteer at the county parks for spring cleanup, and monitor birdhouses within our county parks as part of my involvement with the National Audubon Society. My passion for meeting new people and staying engaged in the Oxford community drives my commitment to fostering lasting relationships and celebrating the place we now proudly call home.

For over 25 years, I was in the world of education.  I was a teacher, counselor, and a high school administrator.  When I retired to become a real estate agent, I found that my counseling skills were my most important attribute to every transaction.  Being there to listen to my clients as they were buying or selling a house helped them during one of the biggest transactions of their lives.

For 2018 and 2019, I was one of the top two realtors.  Since then, I have been #1 in sales each year.  I was named in the Top 3% in Oakland County for both 2021 and 2022.  It was an honor to be featured in the Real Producers of Oakland County magazine in the December 2022 issue.  The theme for that month was about giving back which I love to do.  In my first 6.5 years, I have sold over $30,000,000 in real estate.

In 2020, I was given the opportunity to become a partner at Oakland Corners Realty.  I feel like it will be a great fit for me.   Not only will I be able to continue working with current and new clients, but I will also be able to train our new salespeople.   

 I have always been loyal, committed, and determined.   These are characteristics that my parents taught me long ago.  I am proud to say these attributes are very important to me. The time and energy I put into my job are noticed by all of my clients.  

 During my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, golfing, exercising, and getting involved in the Oxford Community.  Our office has been in the heart of Downtown Oxford for 2 years.  My goal has been to attend all community events which has led me to becoming an Ambassador for the Oxford Chamber of Commerce.  I am very excited to talk to other business owners about the benefits of being a member of the Chamber of Commerce.
