A Bit About Me
Hi, I’m Emily, your behind-the-scenes real estate sidekick.
​
I’m a born-and-raised South Dakotan, mom of two, and real estate nerd who actually loves paperwork (yep, we exist). After working as a REALTOR® and transaction coordinator, I saw how much agents were juggling, and how easy it was for details to fall through the cracks when things got busy.
​
That’s why I started Dakota Transaction Coordination: to give agents a smoother, more supported path to the closing table. I handle the timelines, documents, and communication so you can focus on what you do best, serving your clients and building your business.
​
I work remotely, but I’m always just a text or email away. Organized, reliable, and a little type-A in all the right ways - I’ve got your back from contract to close.
Work Experience
August 2023 - Present
Realtor and Transaction Coordinator
Over the past year, I’ve been both a licensed Realtor and a Transaction Coordinator for four agents in my office. Wearing both hats has given me firsthand insight into what agents need when things get busy. I understand how hectic your days can get and how important it is to have someone organized and dependable behind the scenes. Keeping deals on track and making agents’ lives easier is genuinely how I like to add value.
October 2015 - August 2023
Customer Service and Payment Services Associate at Black Hills Energy
In this role, I handled escalated customer service calls and later worked in payment services. I learned how to problem-solve in tough situations, stay calm when emotions ran high, and resolve complex issues with care. In payment services, I worked with financial data, made sure everything balanced, and double-checked every detail. Now I bring that same patience and precision to every transaction, from earnest money tracking to final closing docs.
February 2014 - October 2015
Title Clerk and Warranty Administrator at Camping World
I started by processing title work and later moved into warranty administration, where I worked with manufacturers, technicians, and customers to manage repairs and warranty claims. I learned how to follow up, follow through, and keep everything moving, even when parts were delayed or things got complicated. That same persistence and coordination now help me keep real estate transactions smooth, timely, and stress-free.
