Judy became a Realtor in 1999. Through hard work and dedication to serving the needs of customers and clients, she was a perennial million-dollar club performer beginning her first full year. In February 2010, Judy was presented with Northeast Georgia Board of Realtors' Phoenix Award for selling over one million dollars of real estate for ten consecutive years. Before moving to our beautiful mountain area in 1998, Judy was a teacher and headed the English As a Second Language program for Adult Education in Cobb County. A native Georgian, Judy's passions included her two grand-daughters, eleven horses and playing the mountain dulcimer, hammered dulcimer, and autoharp. Her many church activities included singing in the choir and playing hand-bells. Judy was a graduate of Wesleyan College in Macon, Georgia and was married for more than 43 years to her husband (and broker), Pete.
