My Story

With our homes and living life to the fullest being so closely intertwined, it has been my dream to build a real estate business that touches people in such an impactful way.

 
 

Born-and-raised in Massachusetts, I’ve been enamored with New England real estate for as long as I can remember.

Through client representation, 1:1 consultations, and online courses, I help people like you think big about real estate and back it up with meaningful action that drives results.

My personal journey into real estate began shortly after college.

Like most people, a need for housing is what first brought me to real estate. I was 22 — with a freshly minted marketing degree heading into the workforce during the Great Recession. The world was my oyster! While career pickings were slim, housing options were plentiful given the recent market crash. In lieu of renting or moving back in with our parents, my boyfriend (now husband) and I purchased a condo.

We put down roots in the world-famous location of Salem, Massachusetts, the Witch City. Our first home was originally built in 1784 and had the charm, character, and dated plumbing to prove it. It was then that I developed my sweet spot for old homes. My obsession for real estate grew from there. During my early twenties, I worked in high-tech marketing while moonlighting in real estate. Over the years, I went on to acquire, renovate, and manage numerous properties.

By my 28th birthday, I had collected a portfolio of 25+ rentals throughout Boston and the North Shore before settling down in the coastal community of Marblehead to raise my family.

Certifications & Designations

Upon obtaining my real estate license, I transitioned full-time into the industry and never looked back. I’ve always been insatiably curious about real estate, the dynamics of the market, and the financial and emotional decisions that drive transactions. I continuously stay educated by being out in the field and through networking, certifications and designations.
