Commercial Leasing Director

Nickname you prefer to be called?
My friends sometimes call me Jewels.
How many years have you been in the construction field?
7
Where did you grow up?
South Dakota, I was born and raised in Watertown, attended college at SDSU in Brookings, and lived and worked in Sioux Falls for a few years.
What’s a typical day look like for you?
Too much coffee, and a walk or two. I am a customer service addict, so I am always looking for a better, faster, more efficient way to exceed the clients’ expectations, solve a problem or connect the dots so everyone wins with a solution that they are happy with!
Favorite thing about your neighborhood that you grew up in?
The neighborhood grocery store and the drive-in burger place.
When you were 10 years old, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I don’t remember any fascination with working when I was young, but in high school, I loved drafting. The teacher said, “girls can’t get jobs like that”!
What do you like to do when you are not working?
When I am not with my three sweet granddaughters, (9, 5, and 10 months), I will take my Kayak out on the lake. I have a passion for travel, so every year I try to experience a new destination.
My three pet peeves?
Gossip/drama, yelling, a dirty car
Name a few of your daily habits (other than showering or brushing your teeth).
A walk, some yoga, a good protein shake, and a sanity check-in with my best friend!
