More About Me:
I have lived and worked in the Chicagoland area for all of my life, spending time in Hinsdale, Barrington, Grayslake, DesPlaines, Lake Bluff, Willowbrook and Lisle.
I currently reside in the beautiful community of Lisle, IL. I am an active member of the community in both Lisle and Downers Grove. I support several causes through the Coldwell Banker Charitable Organization as well as my local church. I enjoy giving back to my community and am always looking for more ways to get involved.
I spent 4 years at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb, IL where I studied Textiles, Apparel & Merchandising as well as Business Administration and Spanish. I was also a member of the NIU Debate Team and on the Board of Directors for the Forensics Team. My experience with Debate translates well in to the Real Estate field as it has provided me with the skills needed to be an excellent negotiator and advocate for my clients.
In my previous professional life I was a Retail Store Manager for several retailers, including both Big Box and Specialty. This experience has provided me with several skills that are vital for the Real Estate Profession:
- Ability to connect with many different kinds of people, identify their needs and provide solutions
- Ability to manage time and resources effectively
- Extensive marketing experience
- Awareness of trends in home fashions
- Ability to stage and market a home as if it were a product for sale, identifying a target buyer and strategizing to that specific market
