GROWING UP

Originally from Northern Manitoba, Debra moved with her family to Calgary as a young child. At that time Calgary was just building the Husky Tower, now called the Calgary Tower. Here was a city that had an electric trolley still in service and a bottle of Coke cost 10 cents. In a way, you could say that Calgary and Debra grew up together.

JUST THE FACTS

Debra enjoys meeting people, being independent and believing that anything is possible.

She decided to combine several treasures of life together by becoming a realtor with the Calgary Real Estate Board and joined the Royal LePage Benchmark office.

• Continuing Education is important to her - additional courses/certifications:

• Ad Writing that Sells
• Certified Condominium Specialist, Calgary Real Estate Broard
• Sales Advantage, Dale Carnegie

A great way to end Calgary's Canada Day!

What better way to celebrate Canada Day than to volunteer. You meet lots of wonderful people, listen to great music and get out into the community. I had so much fun..................I am doing it again in 2011.

We are looking for people to volunteer, are you interested?

HOBBIES

"WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?"

One thing I like to do is take pictures - when I have time. This one was taken at the Tigh-Na-Mara Resort, Vancouver Island, B.C. September 12, 2007.

I positioned my camera on one of my sandles and this is a shot looking out to the ocean. It turned out better than expected and I made cards out of it.
