About

MEET MICHELLE

Once upon a time, there was a girl who loved telling stories. She was born in and raised all over North Carolina and spent summers picking strawberries at her grandmother’s house in rural South Carolina and running barefoot from dawn until well past dark. A true Southern girl if ever there was one.

 

This girl also loved to sing and eventually went off to college where she studied vocal performance and earned a degree in journalism so she could tell other people’s stories in a professional-like manner. After several public relations roles, she sought out a new challenge and became a top agent for one of the nation's leading real estate firms. 

 

And now? Dedicated to lifelong learning and perpetually curious, she stays busy outside the booth with a myriad of interests. She is a marathoner and an avid baker (which necessitates the running of marathons) Throughout her life experiences, she has retained her small-town Southern charm while continuing to evolve, allowing her to relate to and embody a diverse range of characters and skillfully tell their stories.
