I am a real estate advisor who delivers a refined, high-touch experience across Chicago's North Shore and the surrounding suburbs. With years spent working across counties in Ireland, 20 years immersed in the communities of Lake County, Illinois, and 2 years in Orange County, California, I bring a rare combination of hyper-local insight and global perspective to every client I serve.
Born and raised in Dublin, Ireland, my international background shapes the sophisticated approach I take to real estate. I have personally navigated more than 20 moves, including international relocations, so I understand the nuances, the logistics, and the emotional weight behind every move. That experience gives my clients a level of foresight and discretion that turns complex transitions into seamless, well-executed ones.
Before real estate, I built a 20-year career in education, and that foundation now defines how I work: thoughtful guidance, strategic clarity, and exceptional communication. I am known for distilling complexity into confident decision-making, so my clients feel informed, empowered, and expertly represented at every stage.
My expertise extends beyond traditional transactions. With hands-on experience in home renovation, staging, investment properties, and property management, I bring an investor-minded lens to every opportunity. My design-forward approach to staging consistently elevates my listings, positioning them to command attention and deliver exceptional results in any market.
I am respected for my integrity, discretion, and unwavering advocacy, and I have earned the trust of clients navigating everything from first homes to luxury estates. A deep well of compassion, resilience, and quiet fortitude informs my professional ethos, making me a trusted confidante and steadfast partner through life's most significant transitions. Lets connect!

She has gone above and beyond, has answered our many questions at any time of the day or night and is e...
Carrie nailed it selling our home. Her review of our home, market analysis, and recommendations to list and show were spot on. It listed above the range being aggressive recognizing attributes of our home and sold day 1 at our price. The coordinated purchase of a new home followed by immediate and as expected successful sale of our home went flawlessly. Carrie is thorough and professiona...
