Born and raised along the beautiful shores of Lake Michigan, I've always had deep roots in West Michigan ? and even deeper roots in real estate. With over 28 personal moves under my belt and a family history in the industry dating back to 1932, you could say I was born into it.
My great-grandfather founded Schuitema Moving & Storage nearly a century ago, and my extended family is filled with local real estate professionals. Growing up in this world, I developed a deep understanding of the moving, buying, and selling process from a young age. I've lived in Spring Lake, Grand Haven, Muskegon, Norton Shores, and North Muskegon ? and even made a move to Nashville to pursue a singing career ? giving me a strong emotional and personal connection to all of the communities I now serve.
With a Master's in Business Administration from Baker College, a background in marketing, lean processes, retail, and property management, and as an entrepreneur, I bring a unique and multifaceted approach to every transaction. My husband and I are often described as, ?serial entrepreneurs,? and have built our businesses around our core values of Honesty, Integrity, and Service. I approach real estate the same way: people-first, process-smart, and always with a commitment to excellence.
My passion for interior design and love for fashion naturally led me to house flipping, which ultimately inspired my career in real estate. I thrive on communication and organization, helping my clients feel confident and informed every step of the way ? from first showing to final signature.
At the heart of it all, I believe that real estate is not just transactional ? it's relational. My goal is to truly get to know my clients, build lasting connections, and help turn your dreams into reality.
Whether you're buying your first home, selling your tenth, or somewhere in between, I'm here to guide you with experience, heart, and hustle. Let's figure it out ? together.
