After retiring from a 32-year career in the tech world—working with AT&T, Lucent, and Alcatel—I knew I wasn’t ready to slow down. I had always loved homes, people, and the idea of helping others find the right fit, so in 2010, I decided to get my real estate license. It started as a passive project and turned into a full-blown second career.

Real estate isn’t as glamorous as the TV shows make it out to be—it’s a lot of behind-the-scenes work, long hours, and constant learning. But I love it. From marketing a home to negotiating offers, coordinating inspections, and keeping things on track through closing—there’s a lot of moving parts. It’s a puzzle, and I genuinely enjoy putting all the pieces together for my clients.

What really drives me is the people. Every buyer and seller has a story, and I feel honored to be a part of such a big chapter in their lives. Since moving to Venice, I’ve helped a lot of folks relocate here—many from out of state—and I love welcoming them to this beautiful community. I’ve also helped fellow military families (as a proud Navy mom!) and retirees finding their dream Florida lifestyle.

Over the years, I’ve built my business on trust, service, and relationships. It’s not about just closing deals—it’s about making people feel cared for and supported every step of the way.
