Her in depth knowledge of contracts, staging, and high end property details helps sellers maximize their sale price and helps buyers win the right home with confidence.
Raised in New Rochelle, New York, Ellen earned her degree from Hofstra University and first honed her fast paced negotiation skills in New York City’s garment industry. Her real estate journey began in Manhattan, where she purchased, renovated, and sold several properties of her own—falling in love with transforming spaces, navigating complex deals, and helping people move into the next chapter of their lives.
In 2008, Ellen relocated to Fort Lauderdale—during one of the toughest real estate markets in history—and committed to mastering every detail of the South Florida market. As a Fort Lauderdale realtor and South Florida real estate advisor, she immersed herself in contract language, contingencies, and risk management. That obsession with the fine print now gives her clients a major advantage at every step, from offer to closing.
With Ellen, you get more than a real estate advisor—you get a meticulous strategist, a fierce negotiator, and a partner who makes the process clear, organized, and even fun. Whether you’re buying, selling, renting, or investing, she is dedicated to protecting your interests, maximizing your outcome, and making sure you feel informed and supported from the first conversation to well after closing.
When Ellen moved to Florida, she arrived with her beloved beagle, Carson, a New Yorker’s hustle, and a determination to build a life she loved. Today, she thrives on quality time with her husband, pets, family, and friends. You’ll often find her laughing at comedy shows, traveling, trying new restaurants, or enjoying the beach—bringing that same energy, warmth, and positivity to every client relationship and every real estate transaction.
