I’m excited to serve as your 2025 President and lead HGAR in “Driving

Change Together.” This year, I’m focused on working alongside our

leaders and directors to enhance the value we provide to our members

through practical advocacy, professional development, and active

engagement. By working together, we can drive meaningful change in an evolving real estate industry while continuing to serve as champions for our members and the communities we represent.

Advocacy will be a top priority as we ensure your voices are heard on vital issues, including fair housing, homeownership, and consumer rights. We will proactively address the challenges we face and push for the changes that matter to you. I am committed to expanding our advocacy efforts to the local level in a big way this year and leading the charge in providing market knowledge and housing solutions to our local communities and legislators.

I’m also committed to enhancing our professional development

programs. Expect hands-on resources and training to equip you to

succeed in today’s ever-changing real estate landscape as both a real

estate professional AND a business owner.

Building strong connections within our membership is key. As your

President, I’ll welcome new ideas and provide pathways to leadership

by creating more opportunities for networking, mentorship, and

collaboration to strengthen our HGAR community.

Together, let’s drive meaningful change and craft a brighter future

for our profession. With the huge amount of talent we have in our

association, I look forward to what we can achieve this year!
