​My real estate journey started over 20 years ago after searching for my own home. I experienced first hand those pushy realtors with little knowledge of basic home construction — not to mention, design or decorating savvy. I vowed to be different.​

I have never been obsessed by sale numbers; I do obsess over you, my clients. I am far more likely to give my “thumbs down” on a property than a “thumbs up” unless it is right for my client, in the short term as well as the long term.

​

Buying a house or condo is a big decision which affects all aspects of your life. The lifestyle and the financial implications are enormous. It is one of the biggest pivot points in a person’s life – and as a Realtor I respect that and give it full weight.​ Because of that, I have never been, nor will I ever be a #1 Realtor in sales volume; I will not sell dozens of homes in a year, or have my assistant deal with my clients; I will never be on a billboard, nor on a TV show. What many Realtors forget is that it not about them, it’s suppose to be ALL about YOU.

​

When I meet someone who is interested in buying/selling I listen and listen carefully. We talk, we talk some more, and then we start on a path that leads them to the right decisions – decisions based on their personal circumstances, needs and wants.​

I get a true sense of personal fulfillment when I can help people, and I consider myself lucky because being a Realtor lets me do that. As the great twentieth century philosopher, Popeye the Sailor Man, said, “I am what I am, and that’s all that I am”.
