CRS, ABR, GRI, e-Pro Realtor®

I am proud to be a Realtor® at Stephens Real Estate. Stephens has a longstanding and strong reputation in our community. A full-service brokerage that provides me the support to fully represent buyer and seller clients. I’m grateful for the 23 years of support, helping navigate the ever-changing real estate market to successfully meet the needs of clients in the town I love.

Native of Wichita, Kansas I moved to Lawrence to attend the University of Kansas Social Welfare Program. Graduating in 1992 with a master’s degree in Social Welfare, later specializing in medical social work. The same year, I married Terri Erickson, a friend who always inspires, helping me become a better person.

We fell in love with the older neighborhoods surrounding University of Kansas and downtown. Always residing in core neighborhoods: Old West Lawrence, Oread, East Lawrence and Centennial. The character of older homes, mature trees, proximity to downtown and KU have always been important factors determining our quality of life.

I appreciate the opportunity to be of service. Social work skills and principles are instrumental in my success. I respect and appreciate diversity in our community. Acknowledging the importance of asking good questions and listening to understand your needs. Providing guidance throughout the process while giving you space to make your own decisions is important. Years of experience, problem solving, and negotiation skills are always present to help achieve your real estate goals.
