About Melissa
My journey in design, development, and real estate began in the picturesque Hudson Valley, where I grew up with a deep appreciation for unique homes and scenic landscapes. In 1998, my passion for design brought me to the Rockaways while I pursued my Associate degree in Interior Design at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), followed by a Bachelor’s degree in Home Development and Marketing.
Before transitioning into real estate, I spent seven years working on 5th Avenue in high-end design and marketing. That invaluable corporate experience sharpened my eye for aesthetics, luxury marketing, and high-level negotiation—skills that seamlessly translated into my real estate career when I made the full-time shift in 2011 to focus on local residential markets.
Local Knowledge, Two Unique Markets
Over the past decade and a half, I have established myself as a consistent top producer by offering a high-touch, personalized approach to every client. Whether guiding sellers, buyers, landlords, or tenants, I bring unmatched local knowledge to two distinct regions I hold close to my heart:
The Rockaways & Coastal NY: Neponsit, Belle Harbor, Rockaway Park, Rockaway Beach, Arverne, and Broad Channel.
The Catskills: Saugerties, Woodstock, Hunter, and Windham.
Why Work With Me
With a strong foundation in interior design and home marketing, I don't just list properties—I highlight their full architectural and lifestyle potential. Partnering with RE/MAX allows me to combine powerful global reach with a true local touch, ensuring maximum visibility for sellers and tailored, expert guidance for buyers.
Whether you’re looking for a beachfront sanctuary, a mountain retreat, or a smart investment property, I’m dedicated to helping you navigate your next move with confidence.
