Oh No! It's Melanie...
"Oh No... It's MOM!!!
That's what my three boys would say when they see me coming with a to-do-list and a face of determination. Honestly, they're not wrong. Raising three sons has given me a front-row seat to chaos, creativity, and comedy on a daily basis. (If you've never stepped on a Lego 5 minutes before school, while someone's sock is too tight on their toes, you're missing out.)
But here's the thing: that same energy and resilience carries into my work. With a background in computer programming and construction, I know how to troubleshoot quickly, build solutions from the ground up, and leverage tech skills to give my clients an edge.
So yes, life with me might include spilled cereal or busted lemonade jugs on the floor that spill under the refrigerator and even the occasional trampoline park bruises. But it also includes a professional who brings order to chaos, keeps you informed, and maybe even makes you laugh when things get stressful. Whether you're buying, selling or signing, I'll make sure you feel confident every step of the way.

Public Notary & Certified Notary Signing Agent
Public Notary
Life comes with important documents, and many of them require notarization to be valid. As a Tennessee Public Notary, I provide reliable and professional service for a wide range of documents, including:
- Living wills & healthcare directives
- Power of attorney
- Property deeds & business transfers
- Affidavits & contracts
- School & travel consent forms
- General “I just need this notarized” moments
-Why it Matters:
Having your documents notarized correctly helps prevent fraud, ensures legality, and gives you peace of mind knowing your paperwork is handled with care.
Certified Notary Signing Agent
Buying, selling, or refinancing a home? As a Certified Notary Signing Agent through the National Notary Association, I specialize in handling loan documents with accuracy, confidentiality, and efficiency.
I regularly work with signing services, lenders, escrow officers, and title companies to facilitate seamless real estate closings. Services include:
- Loan refinances
- HELOCs (Home Equity Line of Credit)
- Buyer & seller packages
- VA, FHA, and conventional loans
- Reverse mortgages
-Why it Matters:
Loan documents are detailed and time-sensitive — one mistake can delay the entire process. With my training and experience in real estate and notary law, you can rest assured your closing will be handled with precision. Because after all, loan docs are like Jenga — one wrong move and the whole thing collapses. I make sure that doesn’t happen.
BEST PART - I COME TO YOU- REMOTELY
