Anne Elise was born and raised right here in Lafayette. She is soaking in all the fun that motherhood brings while balancing her career as a real estate agent and marketing director for a local real estate firm. In addition to work, the day to day household affairs, and keeping up with her little blue eyed boy, she also enjoys anything to work up a sweat, Broadway musicals, cooking classes, and football! She and her husband, Michael, met in high school, but thought it would be easier to start a relationship while she attended graduate school in Dallas and while he pursued his MBA in New Orleans (yes, that this is sarcasm). A few short months after they married, they took off again to Houston where Anne Elise became a law school career counselor for the University of Houston Law Center. She and her husband have finally made their way home again to Cajun Country and couldn't be more thrilled to be a part of this vibrant community.
