Personal Background

I've enjoyed listing and selling homes in Connecticut  since 1983

My professional background includes being a magazine editor for McGraw-Hill Publishing in NYC, starting a cultural magazine for the city of Stamford.  I opened an art gallery and used my marketing  skills to promote artists and sculptors from Connecticut and New York.

I've travelled in the US, Europe and Asia and spent a summer in Italy studing art and language.  My love of cooking has led to growing herbs, vegetables, and even edible flowers! 

I've bought and sold my own homes for decades , enjoy renovating them and sharing my experiences with my clients.  I have recently joined Women's Build, Habitat for Humanity to help build a home for a deserving family. 

Community voluteering has always been a pleasure.  I have served on several boards in my current hometown of Chester. 

My two children attended public schools and graduated from UCONN.  They are married, and both enjoy buying, decorating and renovating their own homes as well.  Three grandchildren are my most recent delight.

Business Philosophy

• There is no place like home and it has always been my pleasure and goal to find that right home for my clients.
• When helping people sell their home, I understand the difficulty of leaving and making future plans.
• Transitions are  part of everyone's life.  I know it takes time and patience to understand client needs in order to make moving as smooth as possible.
