Before I was a realtor, I spent 17 years as a high school English teacher, proudly serving over 3,000 students in the Chaffey Joint Union High School District. Teaching shaped who I am—and I still carry that passion with me today.
That’s why I created Teacher Give Back—a simple, heartfelt way to support educators. With every closing, my clients get to choose a teacher who receives $400 for classroom supplies, projects, or whatever their students need most.
When we work together, you’re not just buying or selling a home—you’re giving back to the people shaping the future.
An amazing gesture to give back to teachers in the classroom. Marie called me to inform me I was chosen, we had a nice conversation, and I then sent her my Amazon wishlist. Can’t thank Marie enough for her kindness, and generosity in personally delivering our $400 Amazon classroom shopping spree to our classroom. Marie provided our students with items that will support their academic and social growth. My students and I are looking forward to using the items we ordered 🙂 Overall an awesome experience.

I’m Passionate About
Elevating Local Teachers
Teacher Give Back is my way of staying connected to the classroom and giving educators a well-deserved boost. With every closing, a teacher receives $400 to fund a classroom project or need—and they get to share what they’re working on with my social media community. It’s a way to spotlight their creativity, celebrate their impact, and remind everyone how much teachers do.

Start by purchasing your primary home.
Later, keep it and buy your next home with as little as 3.5% down.
Leverage your equity to invest in additional properties—locally or out of state.
