My journey in real estate began over 21 years ago. I had an amazing career in the accounting field before I ventured into Real Estate! After studying and talking to other Realtor's, the realization set in that I belong in Real Estate! It offered something that my previous vocation did not - the ability to make a truly meaningful impact on peoples's day to day lives.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n

<\/p>\r\n

I knew real estate was for me when I followed my own advice - to follow my client's best interest and to look out for them. the rest will follow if I just put my client's needs and wants first. This has been my guiding principle all along. Setting out into the world or real estate, I was wary of the 'sales-sy' nature of this job. I realized very early on that my job actually, is to act as your consultant - a subject matter expert. I adopted my simple philosophy of No Pressure - Just Results very early on and I still live and abide by it every day! I wake up every morning, grateful, for the opportunity to serve my clients.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n

Many friends have become clients and many clients have become friends. My unstoppable desire of helping you first has propelled me into a knowledgeable, accommodating realtor in Durham Region and the Eastern GTA.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

I have been blessed with two amazing children - two daughter's - one who is now an Oncologist and the second - currently in University studying to Medical Tech.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n

I am a painter, decorator, mother, wife, daughter and a mentor. I believe that everything that happens - happens for a reason.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n

There's a reason why you are here. I hope I can help!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n
