Sonal Goda

A graduate of Thomas Jefferson High School, she earned a Bachelors of Science from the College of William & Mary. She excelled as a database programmer and analyst for five years, working for a government contractor, before becoming a Realtor®.

When Sonal isn’t busy with her academic or professional endeavors, she enjoys indulging her self-described “geek” side. She and her husband gather with friends to attend movie screenings and book releases, like the Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings series.

And there are few things Sonal enjoys more than sitting down with a good book from one of her favorite science fiction authors, Orson Scott Card or Stephen Brust. Sonal is also known for her love of a certain footwear. No matter what the temperature outside, there is no doubt that she will be found wearing her trademark sandals.

Her clients and co-workers admire her leadership abilities, attention to detail, patience, communication skills, determination, and ethics. Married in August 2005, she and her husband share their home in Oak Hill with their two young kids.

“I believe that every problem has a solution. You just have to keep searching until you find the answer."

And it’s exactly this approach to life that guides everything she undertakes. Whether achieving scholastic success, excelling in her career, or staying active in her community, she strives to reach A Higher Standard.
