"I'm living my dream," responds Page happily, when anyone asks about her career as a real estate professional.  "It's just like the time my niece Peyton walked into a gourmet candy store and asked, 'Mama, am I dreaming?'  I feel that way each and every day."

Page has always been motivated to help others.  A resident of Columbia since 1965, Page grew up in the southeast and graduated from Dreher High School.  She followed in her Mother's footsteps to become a registered nurse.  While studying nursing at the University of South Carolina, she found time to help others as a Resident Advisor and Assistant Residence Hall Director for the Department of Student Housing. 

Page has always had close ties to the community.  She was quite active at Shandon United Methodist Church as a youth leader, attending mission projects and serving as a youth representative to the Council on Ministries and Administrative Council.  During college, she served as a counselor for the Methodist Youth Fellowship.  She spent summers working for Richland County Parks & Recreation, first as an umpire for youth and adult league softball.  Later, she became the assistant park director for Emily Douglas Park in Shandon.

As a critical care nurse in the coronary care unit, recovery room, and later traveling as an educator for a medical equipment company, Page found herself torn between two competing interests.  "I loved nursing.  It was very rewarding.  But I kept telling myself, ‘someday, when I retire from this, I’m going into real estate.'"

Just how did this passion for real estate begin?  It was when she purchased her first home.  "I became hooked in 1990 while looking for my first home.  After going through the process myself, learning some things the hard way, I couldn’t resist helping my friends in their search for the right house."  Her friends encouraged Page to follow her heart, and today Page is in her dream job.  "I’ve always known that someday I would do this full time." 

"Columbia is a great place to be - it's the only home I've ever really known," says Page, encouraging others to join her in this growing city.  Do you have dreams of your own that are not yet realized?  Call or email Page today to find out how she can help you make your dreams a reality.
