At the age of 17, she enrolled at SMU graduating in 1979 with a degree in Fine Arts and Journalism. In 1980, she secured her real estate license becoming one of the most sought and referred realtors in the Dallas area. Brenda’s skill in finding homes that matched the needs of her clients, her art of negotiating and taking care of all aspects of home buying, were her passion and her gift.
