About

My name is Shanda and I am a single mother of two turned realtor in Howard County, Maryland. Whether you are seeking to purchase or sell your residential estate, my mission and ultimate goal is to ensure that the process is seamless.

My past experience as an army spouse has shaped my understanding of how to start the new chapters of our lives beginning with the place we call home. I have been exposed to eclectic styles of living from North America to parts of Europe.

As a warm and dedicated professional, I bring a unique skill set, excellent communication skills, and a keen ability to connect with buyers and sellers. Being a natural negotiator, I can stay calm and focused through what can potentially be a complex and stressful time.

Having school children of my own, I bring an innate level of knowledge of the school systems and surrounding areas. My family values and diverse background are what sets me apart from others in the industry. I believe that honesty, integrity, and customer satisfaction are the golden standards in business.

“Shanda has a great way of turning the chaos of buying a home into a calm. As a first time home buyer, I was very overwhelmed with the task of moving across the country but in using her connections and knowledge of the local area, we were able to close on our home within our desired time frame with ease. If there's anything you can expect from her it's great communication and attention to detail. Looking forward to working with her again.”

“Shanda, my real estate agent, helped me tremendously with purchasing my home in Havre de Grace, MD. She went above and beyond throughout the entire process. Her knowledge, professionalism, and genuine understanding of her clients made all the difference. I couldn’t imagine getting through this experience without her support. She was thoughtful, kind, and truly focused on helping others—not just making a sale. If you ever need an exceptional realtor, she is the one to call.”

“Shanda was amazing and helped us see several properties on a very short notice. She was patient and responsive throughout the process, and made us very comfortable with moving forward.”

Amadeo Vazquez

“Shanda was amazing. We lost our home to a fire about two months ago and were looking for a 12 month rental. The twists and turns of the process were extremely frustrating. About 6 weeks into our dealings with the insurance company we contacted Shanda and she immediately got to work showing us homes that would fit our family’s (of 5) needs. In less than a week we found a home and moved in. She was easy to work with with, definitely went the extra mile to make sure we landed in a good home in a good area. She was an absolute lifesaver, our family will never forget her work on our behalf. We’d give her 10 stars, there aren’t enough stars”

“Shanda was absolutely a breath of fresh air! Our family was searching for a safe and spacious place to call home and she was god-send! The stressors of trying to find a place on our own was insanely nerve wrecking to say the least. We had applied at one place on our own and the landlord was then unresponsive. That put a bad taste in our mouths and was now leery of scams. We reached out to Shanda and she made it happen going forward! We narrowed down our search to 2 top places; scheduled 2 viewings which that's all it took! We didn't want to view too many places because mentally we would confuse ourselves in our main goal which is moving to a safe and spacious place yet needing to be near the children's boundary schools! Shanda promptly scheduled a viewing and we agreed that we was interested in the first home. Shanda is extremely knowledgeable and patient as she eased ALL of our stressors during this time. She walked us through the process to apply and advocated for our family to land the perfect place! She is communicative, professional and honest which makes it all worth our while choosing her as Thee #1 Realtor ever! My husband and I will definitely refer others to her!!!!!!! Thanks a million Shanda, You're the best!!!!!”
