My journey in real estate involves a collection of my personal and professional experiences, and they have all shaped my unwavering passion for helping individuals fulfill their dream of home ownership. Before officially becoming a licensed real estate agent, my foundation was laid through years of immersion in this industry. At the young age of 17, I moved from England to the United States with the goal of becoming a lawyer. However, as it often does, life took a different turn, and entrepreneurship within the realm of real estate became my new focus.
An adventure across the world and the pursuit of a legal career helped me become who I am today—a dedicated real estate professional. My husband and I jumped into property ownership at just 20 years old, sharing a vision that resulted in a sizable portfolio of properties by the time I turned 30. During my early twenties, I also attended Rollins College in Winter Park, FL, which helped me hone my communication skills and instilled in me a deep sense of discipline that later proved to be quite valuable. It wasn’t until 2020 that I earned my real estate license with the intention of exclusively handling personal property transactions. However, referrals and word-of-mouth carried me further, leading to over 20 successful transactions in just my first two years as a Realtor.
While my time as a licensed professional might seem short, I’ve actually got more than two decades of real estate experience under my belt. My expertise spans from investments and building new properties to helping home buyers find their ideal home and assisting sellers in successfully listing their properties for a smooth transaction. My heart is with supporting first-time home buyers, as I am fueled by the pure joy they experience when they sign the closing papers for their first property.
What sets me apart from other professionals in this field is my comprehensive approach to real estate. I take great pride in being there for my clients, from the moment they walk into their first showing to even after they close on the property, ensuring I’m available to answer any questions or offer guidance wherever it’s needed. Whether my clients are purchasing their 100th property as an investor or their first home as a first-generation homeowner, I’m here to make the process as seamless as possible.
I’m experienced in both residential and vacant lot transactions, and I’m fully licensed to work in Florida under Charles Rutenberg Realty. Drawing from my extensive background as an investor and developer, I effectively bridge the gap between buyer and seller perspectives. Overseeing my own properties for over two decades has given me valuable insight when advising clients on real estate investments.
My biggest motivators throughout my career have been my husband, daughter, and family, as their ongoing support fuels my fire. Monica Osario, my broker, has also played a big part in boosting my confidence as she was the one who initially encouraged me to take on my first solo transaction during the pandemic. When I’m not assisting clients through their real estate endeavors, I enjoy traveling with my daughter and soaking up the beauty of Europe. Pilates, coffee, and cherished moments with my family all recharge my batteries.
Having resided in Orlando since 1998, I possess great love and knowledge of the city and its surroundings, and I’m happy to pass along that wealth of knowledge to my clients. My commitment to staying updated on today’s best practices and trends in real estate ensures that my clients receive the most informed guidance, while my continuous dedication guarantees their peace of mind every step of the way.
