MY BIO

I am a full time realtor, specializing in Oak Park, River Forest, and several western suburbs.  In addition, I have served clients in various city neighborhoods, including Lakeview, the Gold Coast, and Lincoln Park.  I am a native Oak Parker, and currently live in Oak Park with my husband Andrew, and our girls, Stephanie and Sophia.  I have a couple of addictions:  HGTV, container gardening, and any travel that involves a beach, a book and some historical home tours!  I have been selling real estate since 2002, and I have been very successful.

I spent almost twenty years in corporate America prior to my real estate career.  My prior career involved a lot of negotiation, marketing and client management.  I never thought that work could be like this!  It really is true that if you love what you do, you never work a day in your life.  I am very lucky to live in this amazing community, and to share it with people looking for a place to live and raise their families that is friendly and welcoming to all.

I feel privledged to accompany my clients on their journey as they search for the perfect place to call home.  People are often buying or selling a home because of a major life change, sometimes a positive one and sometimes a challenging one.  I make an effort to get to know my clients, their likes and dislikes, and their motivations, so that I may best help them to achieve their real estate goals.  Sometimes people are in a hurry, relocating from another city, trying to transplant their families as soon as possible.  Other times, the search is a more casual one, one where the family will move only if the home of their dreams comes onto the market.  Whatever the time frame, I treat each of my clients with the respect and consideration that they need, and provide them with the information that will help them to come to a decision on their own.

Whether you are moving in, moving up, or moving out, I would love to work with you.  There are strategies to buying and selling successfully in any kind of market--don't let the media scare you!   Call me and let's talk about all that is possible.
