Bio
Hi,
I’m Tari, I recently retired from an enriching career in the federal government as an Equal Employment Opportunity Specialist and Complaints Mediator. Prior to entering the government, I was a licensed real estate professional in Maryland and Washington DC for ten years, with a genuine love for connecting with people, and a dedication to providing personalized and exceptional service to each of my clients.
Before entering the real estate industry, I spent thirteen years traveling the world as a flight attendant with Northwest Airlines. During my years of service and globe-trotting, I had the pleasure of meeting incredible people and experiencing diverse cultures. These experiences deepened my passion for helping others.
I grew up in Washington, DC, graduating from Eastern Sr High School and attending American University, where I studied sociology. After leaving American University, I completed a course in Computer Operations at Computer Learning Center then continued sociology studies at University of Maryland, University College.
The joys of my life are my daughter and son-in-law, Ashley and Anthony Jenkins and my adorable grandchildren, August and Alexander.
My goal in returning to the industry is to make each of my client’s real estate journey as smooth and rewarding as possible, ensuring they find the right home at the right time.
