Real estate is in my blood….. I was born in London, England and grew up in Canada. I lived in both Toronto and Edmonton, when both cities were young and bustling with new construction. My family bonded by my parents loading my brother and I into the car on weekends, so that we could look at houses in new developments. We would marvel at the beautiful homes and my young parents would strategize to figure out a way that they could purchase one of the more affordable, modest houses. My parents were fiercely ambitious and determined to build a better life for themselves and their children. We were always movin’ on up! I have happy memories from that period in my life. So as an adult, it was only natural for me to pursue a career in real estate.

I currently live in New York City. I first entered the profession after the 911 tragedy in 2001 and rode out the wild times in the market until the crash in 2007. After which time, I spent a few years as an attorney head hunter, but I’m glad to be back working in real estate again, this time with my own brokerage. It’s a dream come true for me to create a business that resonates with my values. My office is located within the walls of a beautiful yoga studio and I now practice what I call “Holistic Real Estate”. The mission of my company is to account for the whole person….their mind, body and soul. Conscious or not, there are definite emotional and energetic aspects involved when searching for a home, that will promote health and well being.

The spaces that we inhabit hold both positive and/or negative energies. We can often feel it when we walk into a room. Since we spend a majority of our time indoors, I think it’s important that the spaces we live in emit positive energies that promote health and well being. I’ve developed services that are offered through Shala Real Estate to help with this aim. So in addition to real estate agents, my team consists of consultants that can provide: House cleansing and Blessing ceremonies, Feng Shui, Vastu Shastra, Interior Design, Aromatherapy and Color Analysis, Nutritional consulting and Private yoga instruction etc. Here is a link to my current list of Practitioners: http://shalarealestate.com/prana-practitioners
