This early exposure fostered a deep, natural love for woodlands, creeks, rivers, and raw land. As a preteen, she even built her own treehouse, discovering a passion for building and working with her hands in the dirt.

A childhood dream came true when she had the opportunity to live and work on a cattle ranch. This hands-on experience further solidified her connection to the land. Over the past three decades, Dawn has dedicated herself to learning the intricacies of hunting land, its development, and farming, effectively serving as an apprentice in these fields.

Beyond her outdoor pursuits, Dawn has been a pillar in her community. She served as the District Director of Dixie Girls Softball and also operated the Canton Dixie Youth Baseball program, demonstrating her commitment to youth development. She instilled her own love of the outdoors in her two sons, teaching them to shoot, hunt, operate equipment, and even how to repair it.

In 2006, Dawn pursued her professional calling, studying to achieve her real estate license, and later, her Broker license. This move was a natural extension of a realization she had as a young child: the neighbors with large parcels of land had a precious legacy to leave their children. It’s this vision that drives her today.

Now, as a Broker in a new real estate company in Mississippi, Dawn is dedicated to helping families secure that same opportunity—to carry on a legacy of their own. Her life’s journey, rooted in the land and guided by a spirit of stewardship, is truly reflected in her mission: “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” (Matthew 5:16)
