I fell in love with Santa Barbara after moving here in 1987. The sunny days, warm weather and beach life style lured me in and I still love it! After meeting my husband, marrying and starting our family, we bought our home in the neighboring community of Goleta where we have lived for over 24 years. In fact, Norm Popp at Foundation Real Estate Group was the Realtor that helped us buy our first home! My professional career has always included marketing, sales and customer service in various industries including the telecommunications industry, a packaging company and a local vacation rental company. It is my joy to share my long term knowledge of the area to help clients buy and sell homes in this beautiful place we call home!
