Hi, I'm a transplanted northerner – (born and raised in New York to French immigrants –Oui je parle Francais) - living in Florida for 20 years. In the 70's I worked as a Realtor in the Bronx – City Island to be exact. Then I started a family and didn't keep up my license, (bad move). I aspired to a career in architecture, so I went to architecture school at New York Institute of Technology for three years, moved to Florida and finished my degree at the University of Florida in Gainesville. After10 years of working in my dream career I sustained an injury to my shoulder. This injury never healed because I was constantly on the computer doing CAD design. I finally decided to make a career change – something where I could use my training as an architect. Needless to say, I was worried – where will the money come from? How will I be able to afford my career change? But, I put my faith in God and went for it. It’s the best move I ever made, other than my husband, children and dogs. My extensive training in architecture has given me many skills for Real Estate such as listening and helping customers discern between their wants and needs, marketing and computer and internet skills. My negotiating skills, coupled with my knowledge of the local real estate market and my concern for putting my customer’s interests first and foremost, will be your best asset when it comes time to sell or purchase a home. As a real estate professional, I will go the extra mile for you before, during and after the transaction. After all, buying or selling a home is the biggest and most important decision of your life. Why trust it to just anyone?
