As a lifelong native of southwestern Pennsylvania, I have considerable knowledge of local neighborhoods, schools, and amenities. I graduated from Duquesne University with a B.A. in Integrated Marketing Communication, with a background in advertising, public relations, and effective marketing strategies. Upon working for a few years in the industry as a technical writer, I furthered my education and graduated with an M.Ed. from California University of Pennsylvania. As a teacher, I have spent many years working with students from various backgrounds and ability levels, helping them to overcome challenges to achieve academic success and personal growth. With my education and work experience, I have developed a unique skill set that will benefit you as my client. I'm kind, driven, patient, and dedicated to helping you find the perfect home to meet all of your financial and lifestyle needs. Buying and selling a home is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. It's important to work with a reliable agent you can trust to consistently advocate for you and help to achieve your goals. In my free time, I enjoy reading, traveling, and spending time with my friends and family, including my husband, four daughters (ages 9-22) and my dog.
