Originally from the Lower East Side of Manhattan, I transitioned to Westchester County in the late 1980s, where I have proudly called Ardsley home for the past 27 years. My husband, a Yonkers native and the son of a home construction builder, and I have raised our two children here, embracing the vibrant suburban lifestyle.
Before embarking on my real estate career, I enjoyed a successful tenure in Human Resources within the Life Sciences industry. My initial exposure to real estate came through corporate relocation, where I guided employees through the complexities of buying, renting, and temporary housing, ensuring a seamless transition every step of the way. Additionally, my experience in managing multi-family real estate properties provided invaluable expertise in negotiations, contract and lease management, tenant relations, and marketing strategies.
Real estate has always been a passion in our family. My husband and I have enjoyed renovating and updating properties, giving me hands-on experience with financial institutions, attorneys, agents, and contractors. I have a keen eye for interior design and home staging, recognizing that in today's competitive market, strategic presentation is essential for maximizing a property's appeal.
My background in human resources, residential property management, and home renovation made my transition into real estate a natural progression. I chose to align my business with Houlihan Lawrence due to its outstanding brand reputation, unparalleled marketing excellence, and leadership in the industry.
I take pride in my client-focused approach, built on patience, persistence, and a deep commitment to honesty and integrity. My ability to communicate effectively with diverse personalities allows me to understand and fulfill each client’s unique needs. Building trust and lasting relationships is at the heart of my business.
For buyers, I leverage my local expertise to identify the perfect home in the neighborhood that suits their lifestyle. For sellers, I utilize cutting-edge digital marketing and social media strategies to ensure maximum exposure to qualified buyers. My commitment to excellence is reflected in the personalized service I provide, supported by a trusted network of professional lenders, attorneys, and contractors.
Whether you're buying your dream home, selling your current property, or assessing market value, I am here to provide expert guidance and support at every step. I invite you to explore the resources available on my website, and I look forward to assisting you with all of your real estate needs.

When I'm not assisting clients with their real estate needs, you can often find me on the soccer field with my family, cheering from the sidelines and enjoying the game.
Beyond real estate and home interior design, I have a deep love for cooking and cherish quality time with family and friends—always capturing memories through plenty of photos. I am also passionate about travel, music, and a great book.
