Michelle Jones, Associate Broker

After 10 years helping to run the family HVAC business, I transitioned into real estate to fulfill a lifelong interest that I had.

I then became a real estate agent in 2005 on the residential side, specializing in fixers.

Due to market conditions shortly thereafter, I found myself in need of yet another career change or some sort of temporary job. This is what led me to what I thought would be a temporary serving position at a local restaurant and stayed a little longer than anticipated.

I have 15 plus years of experience, front of house, in the hospitality and food industry, to include lottery operations, cash handling, restaurant management experience, and a strong understanding of the operations of running a restaurant.

I am excited to be a part of such a great team and I look forward to helping you achieve your real estate goals.
