Hi. I'm Barbara.
Here's a little about me.
I've been fortunate to call some of America's most breathtaking places home. I grew up just outside Yosemite National Park, where my parents spent over 40 years building their real estate careers- and unknowingly shaping mine. From there, I relocated to the stunning coastline of Monterey Bay, immersing myself in the coastal lifestyle for over two decades.
After years of teaching preschool, I transitioned into the world of private investment and trust management, gaining a deep understanding of the market, from everyday transactions to high level luxury assets. These experiences, paired with my background, have given me a unique lens on real estate, especially in the luxury space.
Today, I'm proud to blend my passion for real estate and storytelling as a TV Host for The American Dream, a nationally televised show that celebrates lifestyle, community, and real estate across the country. Through this platform, I get to spotlight the places, people and properties that make life truly special.
While my home base is in Lake Norman, NC, I continue to serve my clients along the Monterey Bay coast. Whether in the Carolinas or California, my commitment remains the same: delivering exceptional service, building lifelong relationships, and helping clients find more than a house - but a lifestyle they love!
My love for Real Estate
As I have built a career over the years in Real Estate, no matter which coast I am on, my job for my clients remains the same. As your agent, it is not only my duty but my pleasure to guide you through each step of the process with the utmost support, care, and knowledge. I am your most trusted advisor, and my mission is to put you first and be your strongest advocate during this process and future ones to come.
I believe you should never stop learning and growing in your career and because I continue my education every year, I am able to bring to the table unparalleled market knowledge, expertise, and exclusive marketing resources and technology to make the process as simple as possible. From listing your home for sale or looking for your dream home, to exchanging the keys at closing, I'm with you every step of the way.

Aside from Real Estate...
When I’m not working on Real Estate, I love spending quality time with my family and our dogs. I also volunteer with Safe Alliance and the Exchange Club.
Traveling is by far one of my favorite things to do, whether exploring other countries, visiting my hometown by Yosemite, hiking in Big Sur, or just going to Universal Orlando and pretending that I belong in the Wizarding World.
Running has been a big part of my life, completing a full marathon (The Big Sur Marathon), 10 half marathons and too many 10k's to count. You can also find me at Club Pilates multiple times a week.
