Teacher. Advocate. Texas Country Living Specialist. With 12 years in real estate and a heart for helping people find where they truly belong.
I didn't start out as a realtor. I started as a teacher.
For years, I stood in front of classrooms helping kids navigate something unfamiliar — guiding them through confusion toward clarity. When I transitioned to real estate in 2013, I quickly realized that's exactly what I was still doing. Every client, whether they're a first-time buyer or a family of five making a major life change, deserves someone who listens first and sells second.
My specialty is something I call "right-sizing" — helping Austin buyers step back from the noise, the traffic, and the rising costs to discover what life actually looks like in small-town Texas. Bastrop. Elgin. Lampasas & Rockdale. Cedar Creek. Smithville. Taylor. These aren't just towns on a map. They're communities with real character, real neighbors, and a pace of life that reminds you what matters.
I've been a resident of the greater Central Texas area my whole life. I know these communities not just as a realtor — but as someone who loves them. When you work with me, you get a guide who's genuinely excited to introduce you to the places and people that make this part of Texas extraordinary.
After 12 years and hundreds of families helped, my mission hasn't changed: to be the kind of realtor your grandmother would trust — and your savviest friend would approve of.
Lisa's path to becoming Texas's go-to country living specialist wasn't a straight line — it was exactly the right one.
Lisa began her career as an elementary school teacher — a calling rooted in patience, communication, and a genuine desire to help others grow. Those weren't just professional skills. They were who she was.
Teaching gave her something money can't buy: the ability to meet people where they are, speak plainly, and make the unfamiliar feel manageable. She didn't know it yet, but she was preparing for real estate the whole time.
In 2013, Lisa stepped into real estate. The transition felt natural — she was still guiding people through major life decisions, still helping them find clarity in uncertainty.
She earned her GRI (Graduate, REALTOR® Institute) and her SRES® (Seniors Real Estate Specialist) designation, deepening her expertise in the clients who needed her most.
Over time, Lisa noticed a pattern. Again and again, her happiest clients were the ones who'd left Austin for somewhere smaller, slower, and more rooted.
She wasn't just selling properties. She was facilitating life changes. And in a market overflowing with agents, she found her purpose: helping Austin buyers trade city stress for the soulful simplicity of small-town Texas.
Today, Lisa is the guide she wished every family had when making the biggest move of their lives.
Lisa's teacher instincts mean she starts by listening. She asks about your lifestyle, your family, your priorities — not your budget. The right move flows from understanding who you are.
She's not reading from a brochure. Lisa knows these towns — the commute times, the school reputations, the hidden gems, and the growing pains. Her knowledge comes from boots on the ground.
No jargon. No spin. No unanswered calls. Lisa believes you deserve to know exactly what's happening with your transaction at every step. Transparency isn't a policy — it's her personality.
Lisa's designations aren't just letters after her name — they represent real, specialized training that directly benefits her clients during one of the most significant decisions of their lives.
No forms, no pressure. Lisa starts with a real conversation about what you're hoping for — and what you're running from.
Based on your lifestyle, commute needs, budget, and personality, Lisa will match you with the communities that fit best.
She'll show you around — not just houses, but the hardware store, the diner, the schools. She sells a life, not just a listing.
When you've found the one, Lisa advocates fiercely for your terms. She's patient, strategic, and experienced at the table.
Lisa doesn't disappear after closing. She stays in touch, makes introductions, and cheers for your new chapter from the sidelines.
She is the perfect combination of warm and welcoming, professional and knowledgeable, accessible and experienced. No question was too naive and no concern too small.
Lisa has mastered the art of customer service! The attention and care she gives to every detail are above and beyond. If you want the best, you won't regret choosing Lisa.
Lisa is an unbelievable communicator. She makes sure there are no unexpected issues with the closing. We always recommend her — hands down, one of the best.
