When Maria and Jimmy decided to build their dream home in 2006, Maria realized her love of real estate and became a graduate of Superior School of Real Estate in Charlotte. This profession has provided Maria the opportunity to work with clients in both buying an selling their own dream homes! Maria is a member of the local and national REALTOR associations, Carolina MLS, an active parishioner and volunteer at St. Gabriel Catholic Church, and a regular at the Siskey Y in Matthews!
