About Me

I am a full-time Realtor for Downtown Charleston and all neighborhoods on the Charleston Peninsula (and a few bike-friendly walkable areas off the Peninsula), a Lowcountry aficionado, somewhat of a techy-geek and a foodie, and most certainly, an outdoor lover.

You can find me at the lovely Real Estate Studio at 214 King St in the heart of historic Charleston, right across from Brooks Brothers.  If you want to know more about who I can be for you – whether you are interested in buying a home or selling one, you can check out the Buying and Selling a Home page, but here’s a preview.

• In-depth neighborhood knowledge.
• Strong negotiation and analytical skills.
• Great communication (any way you like it).
• Honesty.
• Creativity.
• Fun.

I am excited about what I do now because I am great at finding people a home they love, and enjoy the challenge and creativity of selling a house.  I revel in knowing as much as possible about Charleston and introducing her to others.

I love to play an active part in the Charleston community and am currently on the Board of Charleston Moves – our local bicycle/pedestrian advocacy group, as well as an active member of the Publications Committee of the Preservation Society of Charleston.

Then

I’ve lived in Charleston for a total of eleven years – enough time to see extraordinary changes here and get to know each nook and cranny of this beautiful town and the homes in it.   I have also lived all up and down the East Coast, and in the great countries of England, Italy and Texas.  While I was born in Atlanta, I am the child of a New Yorker and a Minnesotan so I consider myself a bit of a mutt.

My former careers were in economic development, tech and bio-tech start-up company development, venture-capital financing, marketing, telecommunications, and software.  The most unique jobs I ever had were as a Pedicab Driver and Backroads Trip Leader in Italy.

I am proud to have earned a Masters in International Business from the University of South Carolina (2000), and a Bachelors in Communication from the College of Charleston (1996).

Fun

I speak Italian, some French, Spanish and a bit of “Ob” and “Jibberish” (the things you acquire as a child…)

I love writing, reading, biking, kayaking, hiking, yoga, cooking, travel and photography. Oh yes, and enjoying an evening glass of wine and conversation on the piazza with my darling husband.
