Michelle earned her Bachelor’s Degree from Coe College, with majors in Business Administration and Public Relations. She has been in real estate management for 6 years, but her true passion is professional photography, which she has been actively pursuing for the last 7 years. Michelle loves working with people, and her strength is helping seniors by guiding them through important choices that will make a huge difference in maintaining and improving their lives and lifestyle.
She and her son were both born with congenital heart defects, so Michelle knows first-hand how important insurance and health care are to the people she is interacting with. It is her goal to help her clients avoid difficult healthcare obstacles by educating them how to navigate with ease, these hurdles as they come across them. Michelle enjoys developing a relationship with her clients, and leaving them with a better, more reliable future outlook than when she first met them.

Michelle grew up in Story City, Iowa, but has lived in Ankeny since 2007. She has been married to her wonderful husband, Brant, for 12 years, and together they have a son and a daughter. Michelle’s favorite pastime is time spent with her family hiking, bike riding, playing sports and board games. She also loves to read, crafts and boating.
