My goal as a Realtor is to help my customers in the following four ways:

• • Value – I will work with you, listen carefully, and understand your needs to find the best property match and value for your dollar.
  • Negotiation – I will do my best to negotiate the sales process for you to reach a successful conclusion. There are many good opportunities in the market today such as short sales, foreclosures, and deep discounting. I can bring effective techniques to the negotiating process in today’s unique environment.
  • Reduce Stress – Buying a home can be a stressful process. By paying close attention to detail I strive to make our business relationship as stress free as possible. I am readily accessible by phone and email to answer questions and issues.
  • Timeline – I will work with your timeframe – not everyone else’s – to meet or exceed your expectations.

My Bio

I was born and raised in Hudson, Ohio and received my degree from DePauw University in 1979. My husband Mark and I lived in Grosse Pointe, Mi for eighteen years where our 2 wonderful sons were born. A job transfer took us to Lake Forest, IL for the next ten years and we now reside in Naples full time.

This is our home. Since the 1970’s we have visited or owned properties in Naples. I have worked in Naples real estate since 2008 and enjoy using my knowledge of Naples and Collier County to help my customers. I have certifications in home staging and environmental concepts to provide more information and value to my customers.

In my spare time I enjoy cooking, reading, almost all outdoor activities including boating, golf and tennis. I also spend time volunteering for Habitat for Humanity, Naples Botanic Garden, my neighborhood and my church.

I am different from most other realtors – I bring years of selling and negotiating experience to you AND I love to compete for you

This is home for me. I enjoy talking to you about lifestyles and hobbies as much as real estate to learn what things are important to you. I am more interested in finding the right place for you or helping you sell your place than “volume” for us. I enjoy helping and meeting new people.

All this being said I like competing for you. My twenty five years experience as a managing director at Accenture, one of the largest professional firms in the world, allowed me to build world class selling and relationship building skills. I like to compete. When you put your trust in me as your REALTOR I like to work hard and go after your buying and selling objectives. I bring my experience and ambition for you to work each and every day. I treat others with respect, but I like to compete and win for my clients.

I have a unique combination of local Naples living and knowledge, competitive spirit and backing from Coldwell Banker’s massive internet and international buyer network.

I look forward to the opportunity to speak with you about working together.

As the Marketing Director and Transactional Coordinator, I work with each one of our buyers and sellers to ensure a smooth close.  Additionally, I work on marketing for our company, including social media, our blog, and our newsletter.

I graduated from the University of Illinois with a degree in Communication and soon after, moved to Naples, Florida. I began working for Gartner, an IT research company located in Ft. Myers, Florida. I have fallen in love with Naples, Florida and all that it has to offer – the boating, palm trees, beautiful beaches, playing tennis year round, and raising our two young sons here. I love tennis, musicals, and mexican food.
