I have lived in Southeast Iowa my whole life! Our family lives in Lone Tree and I love the rural small­town atmosphere, yet we are just moments from the fun and convenience of Iowa City, Cedar Rapids, and the Quad Cities. 

After 17 years in banking, including working as a mortgage loan officer and insurance agent, I dreamed of becoming a Realtor and helping my clients realize their own dreams of owning their own home!  I chose Ruhl&Ruh because it has the best cutting-edge technology in the industry! They also invest in their agent's education and professionalism. Honesty and integrity is the company way. The people at Ruhl&Ruhl are like family and I love doing my job every single day! 

I feel people should chose me to represent them because I am qualified and experienced, keeping abreast of local markets and trends. As a former banker, I feel I give added value keeping up on current rates and terms available by local and national financial lenders. I feel it is my job to be able to educate and advise buyers and sellers in all things real estate. I try to make the buying and selling process easy and informative. My clients deserve thoughtful preparation and I am the professional expert that guides and advises them through the transaction. We enjoy the buying and selling journey and many clients have become close friends. Some of my most cherished clients are children and grandchildren of former clients. 

In my spare time my husband and I are huge cheerleaders for all our grand's sports events including football, volleyball, basketball, track, baseball and softball!
