I am a third-generation Hinsdale native, and I currently reside in Clarendon Hills with my husband, daughter, and son. With a long-held passion for real estate and up-to-date knowledge of the industry, I am committed to helping my clients achieve their real estate goals. I serve both buyers and sellers and assist my clients with everything from single-family homes and land to condominiums and townhouses while specializing in markets in the Western suburbs, including Hinsdale, Clarendon Hills, Western Springs, Burr Ridge, and Downers Grove, as well as downtown Chicago.
I've always been interested in real estate and this is fueled by a love of home remodeling and interior design, as well as my own experiences renovating several properties and building new construction. My passion for real estate coupled with my knowledge of the industry allows me to give my clients a powerful edge in a highly competitive market. Both my personal and professional ethics shine through in every transaction. Honesty and integrity are just the beginning of the customer care you can expect from me.
I am a graduate from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign with a bachelor's degree in English and a master's degree in teaching secondary education. Before becoming a successful broker associate, I taught middle and high school. Furthermore, I have lived, worked, and made many connections in the respective areas of Aurora, Naperville, Downers Grove, Western Springs, Burr Ridge, LaGrange, Elmhurst, Oak Brook, and Chicago.
After working as an English teacher for 10 years, I decided to change careers and pursue my passion for real estate. Moreover, my experience working in education is value-added for each of my clients as I want to ensure my clients' families are in the best area for their families to thrive. Using my teaching assets, I also make the buying and selling process clear and transparent every step of the way. My clients feel a great sense of relief knowing that I am teaching and guiding them through the process on a regular basis and able to effectively walk them through what to expect, how to best prepare, and how to ultimately get the outcome they desire.
I'm an active member of the Realtor association and pride myself on my work ethic and having my clients' best interests at the center of every transaction. I like to outline my clients' goals initially so we can consistently benchmark how we are meeting those goals and what we need to change or add in order to culminate in a successful transaction. My negotiating skills are top-notch and allow my clients to get the maximum return on their investment. I know the market incredibly well, which gives my clients a significant advantage when buying or selling.
