I’ve lived most of my life in Florida and over 20 years in Broward County. I have a Master’s in Counseling Psychology, which enables me to relate well with people. I graduated from the University of Florida. I’ve spent many years working in the non-profit sector, where I collaborate with community partners to improve the social services system in Broward County. I value helping people and giving back to the community. Moreover, I have volunteered in cat rescue since 2010, so I also have a heart for our homeless furry friends. If we all give a little, we can achieve a lot!
I discovered my love for real estate when I became a real estate investor in 2021. I owned two short term rental cabins in the Blue Ridge Mountains and self-managed from Florida. I loved being a host and helping other hosts to succeed. I have purchased, updated and sold two of my own homes. Before my own investment journey, I was a property manager with ten rental units in Broward County, where I handled everything from showings, lease agreements and collecting rent. I should also mention that growing up, my father was a landlord and general contractor. So, I guess you can say real estate is in my blood.
As a professional, I am known to be resourceful, genuine, honest, empathetic, reliable, organized, and driven. I will go over and beyond to ensure a happy client. I am an out of the box thinker and can come up with creative ways to make a deal work. After working for years with the homeless community, I am passionate about helping people buy their first home and get out of renting. In fact, I sit on the Board of Directors for the Taskforce Fore Ending Homelessness. I have strong determination and will put that dedication to work for my clients. I am knowledgeable about houses and can point out potential problems before a purchase.
Furthermore, I love nothing more than to make people smile. I am excited to continue to help people by assisting in buying or selling real estate, whether it be to buy your dream home, your first home or an investment property.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time in nature. This is how I refresh and revive. South Florida has so many beautiful places to see and things to do. I love to kayak out to a tropical deserted island in North Miami Beach, hang my hammock and enjoy paradise or simply spend the day on one of our award-winning beaches enjoying the gentle sound of the waves. I’m a certified scuba diver, and love to explore the sea life below.
I provide my clients with superior professional and personal service and will bend over backwards to ensure a smooth buying or selling process. What if your happy place was home?
