Prior to joining the Tucker Team, I worked for the Indianapolis Convention & Visitors Association where the primary function was to promote Indy as a convention and leisure destination.  Additionally, I have experience with Kittles Home Furnishings and with State Farm Insurance.  I also supervised the Secondary Marketing department for Inland Mortgage.  I have proven skills in communication, negotiation, organization and attention to detail will prove beneficial to my real estate clients. My husband and I have built custom homes in the Mooresville area for over 25 years, therefore my intimate understanding of the process of building a home can aid clients thru the entire home building process.

About Indy: What's a Hoosier? That's the question most asked by Indiana visitors. No one seems to know exactly where the word "Hoosier" (hoo-zhur) came from but there are plenty of stories on its origin -- 30 at last count. Here are some of the more popular theories: Hoosiers are well-known for their questioning and it is possible the nickname originated because they could not pass a house without pulling the latchstring and crying out "Who's yere (here)?" In 1851 Amelia M. Murray reported that she heard the name Hoosier originate when settlers shouted "Huzza!" when gaining victory over a marauding party from a neighboring state. Kentucky contractor Samuel Hoosier hired Indiana workers to build the Portland canal at Louisville. These superior laborers became known as "Hoosier's Men" or "Hoosiers" and carried the nickname back north with them. Unfortunately, no one has ever been able to prove the existence of Mr. Hoosier. Before its use in America, Hoosier was used in England to refer to someone who lived in the hills or mountains. It may be related to the French"osier" meaning someone from the countryside. This term is still commonly used in Eastern Canada. Indiana poet James Whitcomb Riley said the origin of the title "Hoosier" came from the pugnacious habits of the early settlers. "They were vicious fighters ... [and] frequently bit off noses and ears. This happened so often that a settler coming into the barroom after a fight would see an ear on the floor and ask,'Whose ear?'" That Indiana rivermen were so spectacularly successful in trouncing or "hushing" their adversaries in the brawling that was then common that they became known as "hushers," and eventually Hoosiers. A theory attributed to Gov. Joseph Wright derived Hoosier from an Indian word for corn, "hoosa." Indiana flatboatmen taking corn or maize to New Orleans came to be known as "hoosa men" or Hoosiers. Unfortunately, a careful search of Indian vocabularies failed to reveal any such word for corn. Today the word is used to denote an Indiana native or resident. Although the origin is uncertain, one thing is clear about the word -- "Hoosier" and Hospitality go hand in hand. Famous Hoosiers with Indianapolis Connections Larry Bird, President of Basketball Operations and former coach of the Indiana Pacers David Letterman, late night talk show host Jane Pauley, news personality Oscar Robertson, basketball legend Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, Grammy-winning songwriter James Whitcomb Riley, poet Michael Graves, architect Benjamin Harrison, 23rd president of the United States Discover Indianapolis' Cultural
