I’m a local girl - grew up in Allendale. My mom was raised there and my dad was a beloved Mayor. During his tenure he preserved the Celery Farm, a 100 acre nature preserve. I am so proud of that!

I followed my dad's footsteps into law. I worked at his law firm and loved being with him more so than I loved the law. I felt unfulfilled. My true strength was always with numbers.

It was during the process of buying and selling my first home that I realized I loved the thrill of real estate - the showings, offers and negotiation gave me a rush.

I combined my love for math with the adventure of real estate. It felt right, like finding the perfect puzzle piece.

Today, I help downsizers simplify their home transition with my Downsizing Blueprint. I use a customized approach to make the process smooth, organized and stress free.
