I was born in Peoria, Illinois, and grew up in the small village of Bellevue, just outside of Peoria. I moved to Janesville, Wisconsin on January 1, 1997, and later moved to Stoughton in 2001, where I've lived ever since.
I am married to Shawn Maynard and have three amazing stepsons, one beautiful daughter-in-law, and two amazing grandsons. I also have two cats that think they are the bosses. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and grandkids as much as possible, golfing, gardening, and traveling.

I graduated from Limestone High School in Bartonville, Illinois, in 1994. I didn't go to college because I chose to work full-time at my base whenever I could. From November 1993 to November 1999, I served with the 182nd Airlift Wing in Peoria, Illinois, as a Services Journeyman. I was basically a cook and trained in mortuary affairs, hotel/billeting, and Morale, Welfare, and Recreation (MWR).

I worked as an assembler at Stoughton Trailers from 1997 to 1999. From 1999 to 2001, I worked a variety of small jobs until I found full-time employment. I also cleaned the lady's house I stayed with in exchange for rent. From 2001 to 2004, I worked for Merry Maids cleaning houses. From 2004 to 2010, I worked for State Collection Service as a debt collector.

I have worked for Kwik Trip since September 2003. From November 2010 to November 2024, I was the Food Service Leader at Store 766 in McFarland. In December 2024, I transferred to Store 966 as an Assistant Food Service Leader on third shift. In June 2025, I stepped down to a part-time Guest Service Coworker position so I could focus more on my real estate career.

I am easy to talk to, and I love helping people. I have a very strong background in customer service, and I'm committed to providing the best possible experience for every client as I help them through their real estate journey.
