With over 25 years of diverse business experience, and over 13 years in direct real estate sales, I have a wealth of knowledge at your disposal during your home purchase or sale. Before I became a Realtor, I earned a BBA with a concentration in Accountancy from the University of Notre Dame. I earned my CPA in New Jersey shortly after graduating, and worked for one of the Big 8 (at time) accounting firms. My career path took me to The Hertz Corporation where I gained experience in various management positions, eventually relocating to Chicago to be the Midwest Region Controller. After 13 years at the Hertz Corporation, I followed my dream to sell real estate. My diverse business background has made me an exceptional Realtor. One of my strengths is a strong ability to solve problems which has become necessary in this constantly changing market. I make myself available to my clients at all times to ensure their concerns are addressed and resolved properly. There is nothing more rewarding than a client telling you how happy they are with a home purchase. While most of my experience has been in the Western Suburbs, I have sold properties all over the Chicagoland area - from Hoffman Estates to Tinley Park, from Aurora to Lyons. I am always on top of the latest issues affecting the market. I am fully educated on Foreclosures, Short Sales, Home Staging and of course, Negotiating. My professional memberships include: National Association of Realtors, Illinois Association of Realtors, Main Street Organization of Realtors and Midwest Real Estate Data LLC (MLS).
