Offering real estate services, tailored to your unique goals.. My legal background uniquely prepares me to confidently and ably handle the counseling, contracts and negotiations that are critical to beginning and closing any Real Estate transaction, helping my clients at every step toward achievement of their Real Estate goals. My involvement in my local Rockville community, and strong commitment to local living, make me a trusted local resource and partner.. I was born in nearby Baltimore but primarily grew up in St. Louis, Missouri. After attending Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts and spending one college year at King’s College in London, England, I moved to Washington, DC ready to take advantage of everything the city and surrounding areas have to offer. After working several years at a consulting firm focused on grassroots organizing and public education, I attended law school at the American University-Washington College of Law and kicked off my legal career.. After 15 years of practicing Government Contracts law in the public and private sectors in the metro DC area, I boldly shifted my focus more locally, to my community in Rockville, MD and the surrounding metro DC area, by joining the engaging, dynamic real estate business. Today, I offer my Real Estate clients the same level of superior service that I routinely provided to my clients throughout my legal career.. Having lived in DC for nearly 15 years and in Rockville since 2008, I know the area well, love where I live and work, and am always eager to share my knowledge and experience with others. I cannot imagine living anywhere but the DC Metro area!. My strong commitment to local living and community is inextricably linked to my family – key members of my community. My family and I take advantage of all things local, whether attending school or an event at Julius West Middle School; dining, shopping or skating at the Rockville Town Square; hiking at nearby Sugarloaf Mountain; dining or shopping in charming Frederick, Maryland; or walking our dogs around our Rockville neighborhood. And, this is just a sampling of everything our vibrant community has to offer. I look forward to sharing and experiencing it with you!
