About Helen
I help people from all walks of life buy, sell, and lease buildings across the Pittsburgh area.
I moved to Pittsburgh to earn my Ph.D. from the University of Pittsburgh, and during those years I became enchanted with Pittsburgh's rich architectural heritage. Living in a neglected neighborhood, I decided that I would work to help get derelict properties into the hands of those who would save them from the wrecking ball. Obtaining a real estate license has been a useful tool in accomplishing this goal (though it's an ongoing project to get people to realize the value in preserving old buildings), and it has turned into a career I love.
I work with first-time buyers, downsizing retirees, upsizing families, investors, and business owners. I help commercial landlords find tenants for their spaces, and business owners to find spaces in which to operate.
I got my official start in real estate 12 years ago when I purchased the 6-unit apartment building I lived in; I now own and manage a number of rental properties of various sorts in the City. So I've also learned how to repair and build things.
I'm the board president of Uptown Partners of Pittsburgh, a community development organization, and I'm active as a board member of Touchstone Center for Crafts, a residential art and craft school in the Laurel Highlands.
