What do you do to relax when you’re stressed?
Go to a SoulCycle class, meditate, read, see friends when I can and spend time with my husband and two little boys.
If you could meet any well-known figure (living or not), who would it be and why?
Beyonce, because that woman runs the world. She is a successful artist, businesswoman, wife and mother, and it doesn’t even look like she is breaking a sweat!
What do you love most about the industry?
I love that I can impact an individual’s or family’s life. I am a part of some of the biggest financial decisions someone could ever make and am often the first person to know when a baby is on the way or when a family has to make a difficult decision. I am not sure my clients will ever fully understand how much this means to me.
How do you distinguish yourself from the crowd of agents?
I have been in real estate my entire life and am one of a few hundred agents in Massachusetts that has their Seller Representative Specialist, Accredited Buyer Representative, Pricing Strategy Advisor and Real Estate Negotiation Expert designations. Beyond my volume and designations, every time I help a client, I honor my late mother’s real estate legacy and make sure her memory stays alive.
What’s your best advice for generating new leads?
Focus on who your ideal client is and provide value to that person. I personally love working with families selling their starter home, people downsizing and estate sales.
What has been your greatest accomplishment?
In real estate, being a Top RE/MAX Agent in Massachusetts several years in a row. In life, being a mom.
What’s your favorite meal in Boston?
I always get a filet and big glass of red wine from Del Frisco’s in the Seaport!
What’s the weirdest thing that’s ever happened to you on the job?
Watching someone hand feed a coyote, and a buyer storing dozens of motorcycles in my listing without seller permission.
In 10 words or less, what is your advice for someone new to the industry?
Find a successful mentor or team. Watch everything they do.
