Three words sum up my approach to real estate: family, trust, and passion. I am a longtime resident of Reston, Virginia and graduate of the University of Virginia. I bring over thirty-four years of experience in architecture and over eleven years as a licensed REALTOR®. Bursting with passion for my chosen vocation, I seamlessly combine the two disciplines to provide clients an indispensable asset. Extensive experience in residential architecture allows me to understand potential renovations/additions, as well as the quality of existing construction, even before hiring a home inspector. Since I suggest valuable modifications for a home’s best presentation, sellers are also able to benefit from my multifaceted knowledge. I have joyfully teamed up with my two talented daughters. It is always my goal to treat clients like family and to be easily accessible. I offer both buyers and sellers the stress-free real estate experience I’d want for my loved ones. First-time home buyers and sellers are particularly fun. It makes me smile when I get to explore the world through young eyes again! Building trust through communication is key to all relationships. After discovering the desires of my clients, I work tirelessly to ensure they are provided the very best options in their preferred location. Professionally guiding them through the process is a pleasure knowing I get to see them live their best lives in their beautiful new home. When I’m not selling real estate or talking “shop,” I enjoy playing with my grandchildren, traveling, practicing yoga, throwing pottery, reading, and bike riding. I want to provide you with the care and top-quality service you deserve. Give me a call, and let’s discuss your dreams!
