  • Nominated for the 2016 NAR Good Neighbor Award

For having collected and delivered more than 7 tons of non-perishables to local food pantries in Northfield and Deerfield since 2006.

But perhaps my biggest achievement has been building my business by exceeding my clients' expectations so that I can work almost exclusively by referral.

“Whether moving across town or across the country, it's important for you and your family and friends to have an agent you can trust.  I am part of an exclusive network of real estate professionals that operate throughout North America and are committed to serving and providing value to clients before, during and after the transaction.”

I've also been actively involved in, and supportive of, the Habitat For Humanity organization.  In 2006 I flew to Baton Rouge, LA to help build 4 homes in a one-week blitz for families whose lives were devastated by Hurricane Katrina. I not only worked side by side with the families who were going to move into the homes but also with 100+ Realtors from all over the country with a common goal and interest.
