ABOUT ME

I began training for Real Estate in 2003.  My past experience and skills have prepared me for the Real Estate field and my passion for this work has already led me to early accomplishments. Some of these are being named a multi-million dollar producer for several years, with sales as close to 5 million.  Also, some of my career awards have been Sales Associate of the month several times a, Quality Service Award multiple times for exceptional service to my buyers and sellers.  In addition to this I have earned the e-PRO Certification for Internet Professionalism indicating myself as an Internet Marketing Specialist for Real Estate.   I also served on the board of the Greater Alle-Kiski Board of Realtors (GAKA) for two years and currently a member of RAMP (Realtor Association of Metropolitan Pittsburgh).

My strong work ethic began in my teenage years. I began to gain experience and skills with each position I held. Each of these positions brought me into new challenges that contributed to continued growth in the business world.

My experience was gained through many positions I have held in the past.

This experience prepared me well for the Real Estate field. In addition to client and vendor relations, my years at KiskiNet gave me advanced technology experience that led me to earning the e-PRO Certification. For over five years I wrote a monthly column called Healthy Eating for the Alle-Kiski Today print and online magazine as well as other articles as needed.

I have lived in the Kiski Valley in Westmoreland County since marrying in 1990. I was raised in New Jersey and went to Geneva College where I met my husband, Chris. After graduating we married and had two children, Gil and Kate, who attended Kiski School District for all their school years and were involved in many sports activities that kept me very busy.  Both are now married.

I have been very involved in my local Church, where I have been involved in children's Bible Club, cooking for our meetings, Kiski Valley Foodbank, Women's Ministries, Fundraisers and other programs as needed. I am also a member of the Daughter's of the American Revolution (DAR), where I have really discovered a lot about history.
