Big News! VCOM-Auburn Endorsed Me! 
I’m so excited to share that VCOM-Auburn recently endorsed me as a trusted local resource for students and staff relocating to Auburn to buy a home! I’ve already had the opportunity to help people from their program find homes here, and I’d love to help more future physicians (and the amazing people who support them) settle in with confidence.
Whether you’re moving here for med school or joining the VCOM team, I’m here to help make your move easier—and maybe even fun. From finding the right neighborhood near campus to pointing you toward the best late-night taco spots—I’ve got you. 
Are you relocating to attend or work at the Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine (VCOM-Auburn)? Whether you’re a first-year med student, a faculty member, or supporting someone starting their journey in osteopathic medicine, housing is one of the most important decisions you’ll make.
I specialize in helping professionals and students find homes in the Auburn-Opelika area—and that includes those attending or working at VCOM-Auburn.
VCOM is a private, independent medical school located on land leased from Auburn University. While the campus sits near the heart of Auburn’s education corridor, it operates separately from Auburn University and has its own curriculum, administration, and student body.
