My interest in the real estate profession began years ago during a twenty plus year successful sales career in sales which included the building materials industry. I have applied this sales experience and one of the keys to my success in real estate sales is my ability to develop strong relationships with my customers and assisting them with buying or selling a home through needs based assessment. To that end, I was three times awarded the prestigious "Chicago Five Star Home Professional Real Estate Award" in the Chicago Magazine and I highly value this award because it is my own customers who have nominated me. Having been a long time resident in the Northern Chicago Suburbs where my husband and I are raising our own family, I have vast knowledge of the specific neighborhood which I have applied to assist my customers making decisions about buying and selling real estate. Further, I am a skilled negotiator and work hard to make sure that my customer's needs are always at the forefront of every transaction. I work closely with many real estate attorneys, mortgage brokers and other real estate agents and have learned and been successful at negotiating difficult and complex transactions through a team approach.
In my spare time, my husband, kids and I are active with St Paul the Apostle Church, St. Vincent de Paul, Feed My Staving Children, Woodland Schools and youth athletics. Finally, I truly enjoy working in the real estate industry because I get to be a part of my customer's greatest joys which is purchasing their first or a new home for their family.
