She enjoyed a 30-year career with the now Verizon Telephone Company and became the first female outside technician in the Country while working in New York…. climbing telephone poles… building and repairing telephone booths throughout the city all while raising her daughter as a single parent. She completed her career as a Verizon Engineer in Rhode Island, responsible for the design and construction of all cellular towers throughout the State including Block Island and southeastern Massachusetts.
She can certainly remember purchasing her first home in the 1980’s when banks were skeptical of lending to single women (can you believe that?!?); little did she know then that it was going to be the beginning of her real estate passion…buying and selling…along with engineering (love them BOTH)! She sold her last Ocean State condominium in Riverside in 2008 in fulfillment of her lifelong dream of relocating to Florida.
