About Me

I am a proud Texan, born and raised in Kilgore for most of my life. I left Texas (briefly) after I graduated from Kilgore College to attend the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. After graduating from UL, I got married to Greg and we lived in Louisiana for a few years. When I had an opportunity to move back to my hometown and work in real estate, I jumped at the chance and no idea the impact that it would have on me or my family's future.


Almost a decade later, real estate has become my passion and my business has become more than I could have ever fathomed. My husband and I own East Texas Preferred Properties, where I am the Broker/Owner for our company. We have over 27 agents and broker associates who work with us. With 4 locations in Kilgore, Tyler, Longview and Henderson, we are thankful to be rooted in the Heart of East Texas.


Over my career, I have been honored to be recognized in my profession through various accolades including:

  • 30 Under 30 for the National Association of Realtors®️ Magazine Class of 2019
  • Realtor®️ to Watch for Texas Realtors®️ in 2019
  • Realtor®️ of the Year for 2018 by the Longview Area Association of Realtors®️
  • Rookie of the Year for 2014 by the Longview Area Association of Realtors®️
  • Rising Star Award in 2017 for Women in Business presented by the Kilgore Chamber of Commerce


Working alongside my husband and fellow Realtor®️, Greg Holmes, I absolutely love what we do - helping clients achieve their dreams of homeownership!
