My greatest gift is getting people what they want. I have exceptional listening and business skills. I know that sounds bold, but I did not get into the business of real estate and business brokerage by accident. While initially a financial advisor by trade, I worked with a career counselor to better understand and embrace my natural gifts and abilities and through a detailed process of self-reflection, aptitude testing and skills assessments, I discovered that working with tangible properties and businesses and the people that use real property for personal, business and investment purposes was the perfect profession for me to express my natural skills and abilities so I have worked diligently to become the expert that I am today for the people I serve and have the personal and professional transaction experience that can benefit you. As an owner and leader, I also help other agents find their success in the same business I love. Can you ask a question today without being sold to? YES! We are your experts.
