After starting her real estate career in 2007, she spent five successful years in new construction sales before moving into leadership roles as a compliance broker, managing broker, and ultimately qualifying broker in 2022. In 2023, Dawn took the next step by founding S & S Homes Realty, a brokerage dedicated to supporting agents while maintaining a high standard of professionalism.

Guided by her motto, “Family First,” she is a proud mom to four sons, a bonus son, a bonus daughter, and two daughters-in-law, and is affectionately known as "Grammy D" to her seven granddaughters. Dawn leads her brokerage in monthly community outreach projects and, as president of the AGL Over The Rainbow Foundation, gives back to the next generation by providing scholarships to high school seniors pursuing studies in the fine and performing arts.
