My love of real estate began in my childhood as “Sunday drives” were a family tradition. We would “ooh and ahhh” and imagine our lives in various "dream homes". I continued that house-scrolling hobby into adulthood, lazily cruising past shoreline homes, trying to imagine the life within by the amount of bicycles strewn along the front yard, the number of wet beach towels over the porch railings and the magnitude of laughter filtering through the window screens.

As a child I moved on the average of every 2-1/2 years, sometimes within the state and sometimes a thousand miles away. So I know how it feels to be the new kid missing all 8 front teeth on the first day of first grade (which was also "picture day"!) --the gawky middle school student teased for her Southern drawl -- and the teenage girl who arrives the day the class was voting for the junior prom queen. (No, I didn't win.)

I am a transplanted New Yorker --lived there for 25 years. I am no stranger to either “the art of the move” or “the stress of readdress” I spent four years boomeranging from NYC to LA and back with a summer in Connecticut sandwiched in between...with 3 children, 5 schools, no Valium.

My background is in entertainment, writing and design. As ludicrous as it may sound, I feel that these three fields made me a natural for the real estate business.

I understand the nuances of contract negotiation--getting what you want without ruffling feathers and losing the deal. I am visually oriented and can paint word pictures, having a clear understanding of advertising copy. My design sense gives me an edge in making the most of what is available and seeing future potential. I have bought and renovated four homes on the Eastern Seaboard and here...all different styles...urban loft, beach house, 1920's Mediterranean Villa and English cottage. I love the intangibles which turn a house into the kind of place which makes its visitors want to prop their feet up and never leave. A home.

I see my job as a real estate agent as a sort of algebraic formula: Client x Y =Home
It is my mission to listen to what you are saying you want, while learning who you are--your lifestyle, your personal taste, your needs, your budget and to find you the place which, upon entering, makes you feel you are “home”. I know very well how emotional these things are and I believe i have the capability to help you bring part of your former comfort zone to your new home. A sort of "dream facilitator, I will become the buffer for any possible escrow "nightmares" and be there to lean on after the ink has dried.
