Personal Profile
I've worked for Century 21 since 1996, specializing in selling farm and residential real estate in west-central Illinois. I am a licensed Broker/Realtor and a Veteran Certified Agent (VCA) with the Veteran Real Estate Benefit Network. I work diligently to provide clients with comprehensive customer service throughout the buying/selling process. When you don't want to worry about the transaction process, call me for all of your buying and selling needs.
In addition to working in real estate, I started a farm business in 2000, Heartland "Criations" Alpacas LLC. Aside from buying, selling and showing Suri Alpacas, I sell alpaca products in a variety of locations, participate in agri-tourism, offer alpaca agistment and breeding services, each felting classes and offer consulting services. Concurrently, I serve as the Executive Director Kewanee Economic Development Corporation, a private, non-profit corporation, that serves as the catalyst for business attraction, retention, expansion, and succession in Kewanee, Illinois. As a leadership organization, KEDC works to enhance community assets by stimulating capital investment, promoting business diversification, and fostering community improvement in order to grow and expand Kewanee's prosperity and the quality of life of its residents.
Prior to working in economic development, I spent 18 years working in education, both as a high school English teacher and as a high school principal. It's the melding of my experience, that best helps me to assist real estate clients with their farm and residential buying and selling needs in west-central Illinois.

Buyer reviewThis is the third time working with Kathy... every single time has been such a great experience. She's so knowledgeable and organized. She really does her research, she really cares, and she doesn't just focus on the property, she assists with everything from helping with the bank to helping find appliances. She really is top notch! Never want to work with anyone else again!

Buyer reviewThis was my very first time purchasing my own home, and I had no idea what I was doing. Kathy took me under her wing and helped me through every step of the process. She advocated for me, protected me from any wrong doing or potentially risky experiences, and she made sure that the house I bought was the perfect place for me. She was extremely patient and dilegent in her work. She was up front with any concerns she had, and she made sure to listen to the things I was wanting in a home. I will never use another agent outside of Kathy, and I would highly recommend anyone to use her as their agent.
