Education & Experience Specialist - Naomi Watts | Email me
How can I help? I am the first one you typically speak with when you call or face that you see when you walk in the office. I do my best to help you out or direct you to someone who can. Need help registering for a class, getting a property on our broker tour, or have questions about continuing education? I'm happy to get you squared away!
