With 13 years of full-time experience in real estate and a 15-year background in the federal public service, my career has always been about one thing: helping people. For me, real estate is way more than just a transaction; it's about providing solutions and guiding clients through one of the most significant decisions of their lives. I thrive on finding creative, "out-of-the-box" options that my clients may not have considered, ensuring they have the best possible path forward.​ My passion for helping others is especially strong when I work with seniors. As a certified Seniors' Real Estate Specialist (SRES), I find immense fulfillment in assisting seniors when they need help the most. This work is deeply personal to me. Having missed out on spending more time with my own grandparents, I cherish the opportunity to support and connect with the senior community, which has been an incredibly rewarding experience.​ My roots run deep in this region. I grew up in Alfred, Ontario, which gives me an intimate understanding of the communities east of Ottawa and the unique considerations of rural living. For most of my adult life, I've lived in Ottawa and now proudly call Orleans home. I have a great appreciation for the vibrant communities of Orleans and Rockland, with their fantastic shops, services, and amenities.​ When I'm not working with clients, my life is still centered around family and home. I'm currently helping my own elderly parents navigate their downsizing transition, giving me firsthand empathy for what many of my clients are experiencing. And, of course, my home office wouldn't be complete without my two feline assistants, Timmy and Lucy, who keep me company throughout the day.​ Whether you are a first-time buyer, looking to downsize, or seeking a trusted advisor for your next move, I am here to offer expert guidance and dedicated, personal service.​ Let's connect to discuss your real estate goals​
