Why do you enjoy being an agent?

I love the people that I get to meet, some have become lifelong friends. I love that no day is ever the same and no home is ever the same. I love seeing other people’s design choices and their use of space. I enjoy the challenge of being in a crazy market and coming up with new ideas to get creative to win offers. On the more nerdy side I really like looking at the data on the buying and pricing trends and how that changes every month.

What can you tell us about you?

I have 2 beautiful boys, George and John Luke. We love to spend our summers on the lake, we have a cottage on Lake Ontario in Pulaski and on Black Lake. We love to swim, paddleboard, water ski or just float on the water. I have been in real estate for 10 years, prior to that I was a 911 operator and waited tables which both gave me the opportunities to think on my feet and always be solution oriented. I love thrift shopping and estate sales too; I’m always looking for good pieces to bring back to life and reuse.

What sets you and your business apart from other agents?

I like the focus of my business to be referral based and word of mouth. From the beginning to the end of any transaction I make sure that I am accessible. If issues arise, I work to find solutions. I really like to find out what things are most important to a buyer and seller and create a plan that works for them
