I was born in New York, graduated from the University of Cincinnati and have lived in the Farmington Valley for over 30 years. I have a daughter named Olivia and two dogs named Zoe & Duff. My friends and associates tell me I live and breathe real estate, and I guess they're right, since I work at it eight days a week! I have a passion for what I do and I do it with great pride. I offer my clients 30 years of real estate expertise, extensive market knowledge, exceptional customer service and outstanding negotiating skills. By always being available, having the highest integrity and tending to every detail I dedicate myself to excellence and to helping my buyers and sellers achieve their real estate goals!
