From the UN to the DMV: Built on Grit. 🌍✨

Hi! Welcome to my instagram feed! I’m Melanie. In case you don’t know me personally, I thought I’d introduce myself to you! My journey to real estate wasn’t a straight line, lioke at ALL 😅—it was a flight across the globe. From political strategy in Germany, International Higher Education in Japan to international crime prevention with the United Nations in Vienna, Austria, I’ve navigated complex and VERY different worlds. But my biggest challenge?

Starting my real estate business in Northern Virginia with:

❌ No local social network or family nearby.

👶 A 6-month-old baby in tow.

🪖 A husband on two separate deployments in between.

I didn’t just survive those years; I built a career licensed in VA, MD, and DC. I know exactly what it means to find „home“ under pressure. Whether you speak English, German, French or Italian, I’m here to make your next move your best one.

When I’m not negotiating deals, you’ll find metesting new bread recipes, traveling the world or chasing my three kids and two dogs around Annandale.

Let’s find your dream home. 👋
