Growing up in rural upstate New York, I spent weekends sketching floor plans for homes I imagined designing. I thought I’d become an architect—but what fascinated me wasn’t the buildings themselves, it was how people would live inside them. That sense of design and possibility became the foundation for my real-estate career: helping clients imagine the life they want and then finding the space that makes it real.

In 2008 I joined Marcus & Millichap, first on the NNN team and later with the Senior Housing Sales Group as a Marketing and Transaction Coordinator, where I helped manage over $1.5 billion in group sales. The experience taught me structure, precision, and how to communicate complex deals with clarity and purpose.

Since 2013 I’ve completed 180+ transactions totaling $66 million in sales, focusing on Chicago’s lakefront neighborhoods and select suburbs. I work with first-time buyers, relocation clients adjusting to new jobs and cities, renters preparing for homeownership, and investors seeking long-term growth—each with unique stories and timing.

What sets me apart:

I start with your story—your move, your “why,” and what you need next. Every strategy, from renting to buying to investing, builds around that vision.

I combine commercial-grade analysis with empathy for life transitions, helping clients balance financial logic with personal goals.

I offer a “city-to-the-burbs and back” mindset—guiding clients as they evolve through neighborhoods, lifestyles, and investment stages.

My approach is transparent and strategic, aligning every decision to your long-term plan, not just the next transaction.

Let’s build what comes next—together.
