I'm a native Bostonian from Roxbury and Brookline. After graduating from Boston University with a Marketing degree, I moved to California to pursue my interest in photography and graphic arts. I worked in marketing for creative services firms offering graphic design & photography, as a photographer for major Los Angeles sports teams Lakers & Kings, and was a shareholder/Marketing Director in an entrepreneurial start-up commercial imaging lab catering to the entertainment industry.
I relocated from San Francisco to again enjoy a seasonal New England lifestyle and proximity to family. Having always appreciated architecture, the world of real estate presented itself. This business allows me to apply the critical eye of a photographer, organization skills honed in the deadline world of graphic arts, and a variety of marketing solutions -- all the while offering a private, honest service to property buyers and sellers.

The successful recipe includes staying in touch consistently, attention to and being straightforward on every detail, an eye for possibilities, and a dash of humor.
