DESCRIBE YOUR JOURNEY TO REAL ESTATE.
Having grown up in a family business and moved many times in my childhood, I was intrigued by the architecture, interior design and negotiation style of different cities. Being a real estate agent is the natural career to merge the three.
WHAT ARE THREE WORDS YOUR CLIENTS WOULD USE TO DESCRIBE YOU?
Detail-oriented, patient, realistic.
WHAT MOST EXCITES YOU ABOUT YOUR WORK?
There is always something new to see. The architecture and design cultures are constantly changing, giving new life to the old.
WHERE CAN WE FIND YOU WHEN YOU’RE NOT WORKING?
At home with family, in the kitchen, or curled up with a good book.
WHAT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU TO GIVE UP?
My family; they keep me grounded and on the straight and narrow.
WHAT IS THE NICEST THING ANYONE EVER SAID TO YOU?
Someone offered me a position at an art gallery after I fell in love with a painting and the story behind it.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ROOM IN THE HOUSE?
The kitchen. It’s the place to feed the soul and those you love. It is really the heart of the home.
