What does the future hold?
Expansion.
Growing up in Wisconsin has been such an experience. I am a true advocate for Wisconsin living. Winters can get rough, winters can start early, however there's still so much beauty in the state of Wisconsin. I've met so many agents that sell real estate in multiple states, which initially was my plan. Then I thought to myself, "why not work towards becoming available in multiple areas of our beautiful state?"
That's in the plans for the near future. In addition to providing real estate services in Ozaukee. I'll extend my services to Kohler, Lake Geneva, Green Bay, Lake Winnebago & Madison with a local team that will be able to help enhance the real estate experience for our clients all over the state.

Kohler
Welcome to the Golf Capital of the world! Maybe of Wisco, but have you been to the FIVE DIAMOND, FIVE STAR AMERICAN CLUB RESORT in Kohler? Did you know the resort includes the renowned Whistling Straits and Blackwolf Run golf club? Dare to go pro? You have to start in Kohler! Let's start with food since we're talking about golf and having a good time. Of course the Blackwolf Run Restaurant is where you'd start with their variety of meat options. There’s great views overlooking the river and golf course. You can have breakfast, lunch or dinner at the Blackwolf Run. Few others to mention are; The Horse & Plow, Taverne on Woodlake, The Immigrant Restaurant & The Greenhouse. What's living in the Golf capital like? Fitness, first stop is the Sports Club Core, Yoga on the lake, a little more commute gets you to Fire Fitness Camp in Sheboygan. We know how you'll spend your summers, but how's life in the winter in the Golf Capital? Many residents enjoy snowshoeing, ice skating, curling, hockey, fat tire biking, & cross-country skiing. What's super amazing about Kohler is you can live modest & luxurious. Are you ready to move to Kohler? I'll go golfing with you, now I may just hold onto your drinks and watch, however I'll still go!
Lake Geneva
Where to go in the summer or weekend getaways in Wisconsin? Welcome to Lake Geneva, some of the best views I've witnessed. Everything luxurious and relaxing is right in Lake Geneva. Many new residents from out-of-state will consider Lake Geneva as their first home of choice when moving to Wisconsin or having a second home. It's amazing for destination weddings, boating, fishing, or strolling along the banks, that's just to mention a few things. Lake Geneva hosts some of the finest restaurants and hotels. Grand Geneva Resort & Spa, The Abbey Resort & Harbor Shores on Lake Geneva just to mention a few. Let’s explore food options; Geneva Chophouse, Sopra Bistro, Anthony’s Steakhouse & Seafood, Crafted Italia, Hunt Club Steakhouse, Cafe Calamari, Pier 290, Oakfire, and I could write a Christmas list of restaurants to visit in Lake Geneva. You could spend a month touring Lake Geneva, Williams Bay and surrounding cities just doing a food tour, in moderation if you're counting calories. That’s why it makes a perfect second home option.
Looking to get away from the norm on the weekends, this is definitely the place to own a second home or condo. You'll probably find me there too, especially in the fall and winter with their amazing Ice Castles. Fontana, Powers Lake, Genoa City, Pell Lake, Williams Bay, Lyon & Springfield all surround Lake Geneva.
Milwaukee
Let’s go Bucks!!!! The gorgeous new Fiserv Forum arena right in downtown Milwaukee is in fact a reason to live near or right outside of Milwaukee. Downtown has been transformed to compliment this championship arena! Milwaukee has so many desirable surrounding areas around it. There’s a personality area for everyone; if you’re looking to explore the finest luxury, then you’d stop in River Hills, Whitefish Bay, Brookfield & Elm Grove, these areas will give you the best value when it comes to luxury. Your midwest Beverly Hills are the hidden gems right in these areas. Milwaukee North Shore has villages and towns like Germantown, Brown Deer (where I grew up), Fox Point, Bayside, Glendale & Shorewood that’s higher end modesty. West Bend gives you the best of both worlds, luxury or modest living. If you keep driving, you’ll find some fun and amazing housing along with entertainment in Wauwatosa, Greenfield, Hales Corner, Waukesha, New Berlin, Franklin & Oak Creek. Living in Milwaukee or surrounding areas affords you a lifestyle of unlimited social entertainment, restaurants, sporting activities with it hosting the home stadium for the Milwaukee Brewers. Each town has its own unique local restaurants and social outings, if I listed them all, we’d be into the year of 2090! You can always shoot me a text for the best recommendations or if you’re looking to move into these areas! Always one phone call away.
Lake Winnebago
Welcome to Wisconsin's largest lake, 28th largest in the country! I’d also like to call this special lake area “A Fisher’s Paradise” If you love to fish, this is where you’ll want to be! There’s NO DEBATE! You’ll want to visit High Cliff State Park, they have camping, walking trails, boat launch and a swimming beach. They also have very nice walking trails along the cliffs. If you have small children or just for exploring, you’ll want to visit Menominee Park Zoo, where there are a few exotic animals, admission is free. You must visit the EAA Aviation Museum too, a really amazing place to learn and see all types of planes. The children's spot is very nice for everyone and you can sit in a jet! In the summer it's better because they open the outside hangers and you can take a trolley to see even more planes. Let’s explore some food options, some favorite’s are Sunset on the Water, amazing food and portions with a side of the beautiful views. Wendt’s on the Lake is amazingly known for their fish fries, along with some amazing local beef burgers! Dockside Tavern, TJ’s Harbor Restaurant, Jim and Linda’s Lakeview Supper Club, Chalice, South Side Ice Yacht Club, Mara’s Brazilian Cuisine, & Ground Round at River’s Edge. There’s so many options for food, we’d have to make a new website just to explore all food options. Perfect area for all of your water retreats!
Green Bay

The major educational attractions are UW-Green Bay & St. Norbert's College.
Madison
Welcome to the Capital of Wisconsin! It's a college town, with UW-Madison being hosted in Madison. However, Madison is such a beautiful place. I lived here the weekends I'd go to Badger games because well, you can't just go for a day, the full experience is the entire weekend. College football fans, this town is heaven for you. You can visit the state capitol, Olbrich Botanical Gardens, Henry Vilas Zoo, Chazen Museum of Art and entertainment in this city is simply endless, there's a bar for everyone, literally. There’s a fun social for everyone happening somewhere, your most exciting weekends will always be when the Badgers have a home game for sure. It makes you want to live in Madison forever. Badger pride is unmatched!
Madison is surrounded by Fitchburg, Middleton, Verona, Sun Prairie, Stoughton, Monona, all which have unique personalities that’s fit for anyone who desires to live in Madison.
