Pleased to serve on the Swartz Creek Chamber Board, to be involved in helping the businesses in Swartz Creek thrive and multiply.

I joined the Chambers to help grow my Real Estate Career through Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Michigan Real Estate. I have been doing this awesome “job” since January of 1999. Supporting homeowners in the pursue of their perfect home.
