 A Houston native with over 17 years of experience in the medical field, Annabelle enjoys serving the Texas Medical Center and greater Houston area as a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist. Her nursing career started in 2002 as a graduate of Texas Woman's University. She then furthered her education by obtaining her Master’s Degree in Nurse Anesthesia from the Gooding Institute of Nurse Anesthesia in Panama City, Florida in 2010. Annabelle moved back to Houston and struggled to find her perfect home in the city's continually changing real estate market. This experience sparked her interest in real estate, and she became a realtor.
