My name is Trish Jackson and I was born and raised in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) in Africa. You'll remember me once you've spoken with me, because I'm the one who talks funny.

My grandfather and grandmother were pioneers to Rhodesia and traveled by wagon across the African continent in much the same way as the pioneers were traveling in the U.S.

I moved to the US in 1990 with my husband and family, and I first started practicing real estate in San Diego, selling horse properties, acreage, country estates and avocado groves.

The California traffic eventually got too much for us, and when we moved to a small town in the center of the 3 million acre Gila National Forest in the mountains of Arizona, I sold horse properties, acreage, country estates, ranches, and creekside cabins.

Grandchildren brought us to north Florida, and here I sell horse properties, acreage, country estates, farms and ranches, waterfront homes and hunting and development tracts.
