A career in real estate.
A direct connection to me.
I earned my first real estate license in New York at 18, then worked in other businesses before returning to real estate professionally in the 2000s. My experience spans residential real estate, brokerage leadership, mortgage lending, title, agent development, and coaching.
When we work together, we start with your priorities. I help you weigh the property, the market, and the decisions ahead—with direct conversations and a plan built around your goals.
