"Making Things Happen" isn't just a motto for her, it's what she does! A native of Arkansas, a graduate in Music Education from Arkansas Tech University and holding a Master of Music in Clarinet Performance from Michigan State University, Pat and her husband Roger moved to Baton Rouge in 1979 when Roger joined the Music Department at LSU. They are both avid tennis players, obviously enjoy music, and love to travel - and when they travel, horseback riding always comes into the picture!! Pat's new hobby (or obsession, if you will!), is oil painting!!!

Pat truly believes in the ''customer for life'' concept and it shows in the attention she pays to her clients, both during and after the process. Pat has built a team with agents who have different strengths but who all believe in taking care of the client and making the home buying and selling process as hassle free as possible! That is why the majority of their business comes from referrals from past clients, friends, Realtors, and neighbors! A lot of her clients and neighbors attend the Team's Annual Christmas Party where they collect food for the Baton Rouge Food Bank.

His extensive background in managing and maintenance of the rental property they own has been a real benefit to their clients who seek his advice on owning and managing of their own rental property. If you have any interest in vacation properties to rent on the Gulf Coast in Orange Beach, AL, let him know.

Roger is also an avid tennis player and plays on several teams. We were so excited that 3 of his 4 teams won their league in Baton Rouge to go on to the State Competition. Two of them won at State and one has already played at Regionals in Hilton Head, SC (alas, they lost - but it was close!). If you have any questions about playing tennis or hiking in our area, just check with Roger!
