About Heather

After spending many summer and winter days in Northern Michigan over the years, Heather decided to call it home. She was born and raised in the Grand Rapids area before attending Central Michigan University, then the University of Michigan where she obtained her graduate degree from one of the top Master's in Health Administration programs. Upon graduation, she began working in consulting supporting executive level leadership at hospitals and health insurance companies across the country. While Heather remains passionate about serving others through healthcare, her true eye is for real estate. Before joining Coldwell Banker Schmidt, Heather was a realtor in both Chicago and Grand Rapids. She began her real estate career in Chicago, where she lived for six years, and guided clients through a variety of transactions including investment properties, move-in ready homes, and new construction condos. She then brought her expertise to Grand Rapids for two years before moving north. She brings a wealth of real estate knowledge learned in two very fast- paced markets to Northern Michigan. To Heather, real estate is not just about buying and selling properties, it is about dedicating time to build individualized and unique relationships with each and every client. Heather is an advisor and partner whose top priority is to help her clients feel at ease throughout a process that can often feel overwhelming. She prides herself in being timely, open, and transparent in her communication and those who have worked with Heather describe her as highly organized, detail oriented, and trustworthy. In her free time, you can find Heather planning her next trip, spending time outdoors, playing or coaching volleyball, volunteering in the community, getting in over her head in DIY projects, or spending time with her family and friends.
