I left a successful career in the home-building industry to pursue a career in law.  My successes in my first career had moved me away from working directly with homebuyers into administrative and supervisory positions.  These promotions provided me with invaluable experience evaluating and negotiating contracts, but took me further away from what I really enjoy, working directly with people to help them achieve their dream of homeownership.

I have been a Chicagoan my entire adult life and am a third-generation real estate attorney. Needless to say, real estate runs through my veins and I am very familiar with this world-class city and the surrounding area. I received my degree from John Marshall Law School—the same school from which my grandfather graduated—and since 2017, I have served as Secretary on the board of a 900 unit condo building.. I believe the goal in a real estate transaction is, “everyone’s a winner.” Someone wants to buy a property and someone wants to sell a property. And when this transaction closes—assuming the offer to purchase is genuine—everyone benefits from its completion.. Because of this, there is not a whole lot of “one-upping” in a real estate transaction. I have a duty to represent my client’s interest, yet it does not come at the expense of my working relationship and collaboration with the other party. Both parties need to work together to achieve an optimal outcome—in that way, our interests are aligned, no matter which side of the table we are sitting on. Often times real estate is black and white, and it makes for a smooth transaction. I am passionate about what I do because I like when everyone wins.. When you work with me, you will receive personalized service. I am proudly a one-man shop. When you call my office, I answer the phone. I write all my letters, prepare all the necessary documents, and answer all my emails.. Want to know a little more about me? Here are a few fun facts, because I like to think I am fun and interesting:. I am from a large family: I am one of ten kids. Six girls and four boys. I have fifteen nieces and nephews and am a Godparent to many of them.I was a contestant on Wheel of Fortune in 2008. The show was filming in Chicago and did a week’s worth of shows for College Week. I represented UIC.My sisters think I am lucky (they might be jealous about it, too). I won Wheel of Fortune, I won a Chicago Cubs split the pot raffle, and generally, when I need them to, things tend to work out.If you are considering buying or selling a property, do not hesitate to contact me.
