Meet Me

A decade ago, real estate wasn’t in my plans. But after buying, selling, and developing homes, my husband encouraged me: “You should do this. You can do this better.” That nudge changed everything.
What started as a career shift quickly became a passion. My background in law firm recruiting gave me the tools—communication, negotiation, and marketing—but real estate gave me something even more remarkable: lasting relationships.
Over the years, I’ve become the trusted advisor for entire families and groups of friends. I’ve been honored to celebrate life’s milestones with my clients—attending their weddings, meeting their newborns, and guiding them through multiple home purchases.
For me, real estate is more than a transaction. It’s a concierge-level service that extends far beyond closing day. Need renovation advice? A trusted contractor? Help with a tax appeal? I’m here.
The past 10 years have been incredible, and I’m beyond grateful to my clients, friends, and family for their trust and support. Here’s to the next chapter!
