FOUNDER & BROKER/OWNER

Dona is an industry veteran in the Triangle market. During her career, she has seen and experienced all the market fluctuations and built up an impressive resume of achievements.  But that is not important to you.  What is important is that, like anyone who dedicates themselves to their discipline, Dona has spent a lot of time sharpening her skills and has earned just about every industry designation available.  She is a Certified Residential Specialist (CRS), a graduate of the Realtors Institute (GRI), and a specialist in short sales and foreclosures (SFR).  Her passion is serving people, and her mission is to guide clients towards making the best financial decision.

A Durham native, Dona enjoys yoga, spinning in her spare time, and loves spending time with her family.  She 
holds a B.A. from Elon University, and a MSSW from the University of Texas at Austin.  HOOK'EM HORNS!
