By way of background, I’m a native "Jersey Girl", living and raising a family "down the shore" (Ocean County) for more than 10 years. I was active with Brownies/Girl Scouts for several years as a Co-Leader and Cookie & Nut Manager, and then with Pop Warner Cheerleading for 7 years as an avid spectator and Assistant Coach for 3 years.

I was always intrigued with the legal field, and after college, I became a paralegal with more than 20 year’s experience. With this knowledge, I have acquired a superior customer service affinity, a keen eye for detail, and an obsession with organization. Some say I’m a perfectionist, some say something else. We won’t go there...

I have also been able to work with my husband, Jeff, the past 5 years. He is a Loan Officer with InterCounty Mortgage Network Corp., with a vast knowledge of today’s mortgage programs, not to mention more than 25 year’s business experience. While in this capacity as a Loan Administrator, I have been exposed to the fluctuations in market trends and market values, as well as working with borrowers. Through this, we have made numerous new friends and created a prosperous referral business.

Additionally, I’ve been fortunate enough while growing up to learn about the physical features of "home", especially with grandfathers that were builders and parents that built custom homes. My biggest fascination was always the "floor plan" or layout of a home. It either works or it doesn’t. Jeff and I have worked on LBI as "handymen" and are currently in the midst of renovating our vacation home. We are well aware of the time, hard work, and expense in undertaking such projects, however, you have to have insight and a vision to make dreams come true.

Ultimately, I found I had a desire for a new challenging career. By becoming a Realtor, I have been able to capitalize upon my background and experience. For this reason, I have a competitive advantage over my peers.

I then realized that I needed to find an Agency that would compliment my background. One that is on the leading edge, one that is up-to-date with its technology. I chose Better Homes/VRI Realtors because they had the premonition 10 years ago of what the marketplace would be today. They understood the needs of potential buyers and sellers and that the use of the internet was becoming a key factor. With this insight, the owner of Better Homes/VRI Realtors purchased more than 1,200 domains as well as linked us to the top internet search engines. We’re nationwide. We go beyond the traditional style of real estate. What this means for you and I? We found each other through this innovative technology.

Finally, the "closing" is not paramount in a successful transaction. It is you and I working together as a team to meet your needs. My ideal service to you is also different. With today’s stressful, hustle & bustle lifestyles, with not enough time to fit everything in, I want to build a comfortable relationship with you without the usual high pressure sales hassle. After all, we’re "down the shore", where we’re a little laid back enjoying the sun and surf. I want to work with you, I want your trust and in return I will give you total dedication and go the extra mile to achieve your goals while we have some fun along the way.

I look forward to hearing from you. Take care until we speak again.
