Tell us about your professional experience up to now.

My career is defined by a unique blend of luxury service, operational management, and visual storytelling. For many years, I managed high-end locations within the salon and spa industry, mastering the art of high-stakes logistics and white-glove client relations. This background instilled in me a “client-first” philosophy and the ability to remain calm and decisive under pressure.

Complementing my management expertise is a technical background in design and a long career in hospitality. I hold a BFA in Graphic Design and have spearheaded numerous freelance design projects, giving me a sophisticated eye for property branding, while continuing my education with graduate-level studies in Digital Media. My years in the hospitality industry have also been a masterclass in human connection, sharpening my ability to build instant rapport and listen closely to a client’s true needs. I bring this blend of creative vision and polished professionalism to every real estate transaction.

Where are you originally from? Where are your roots?

Originally from West Warwick, I have happily called Lincoln home for the last 16 years. With a mother who was a British citizen, my siblings and I had the privilege of spending significant time in the United Kingdom. Those formative experiences gave me a unique appreciation for different world perspectives and a greater understanding of diverse cultures. I love the unique balance the Lincoln community offers: a peaceful, rural character with easy proximity to vibrant urban centers. As an advocate for healthy living, I take full advantage of our local farm-fresh meats and organic produce and enjoy sharing that local “insider” knowledge with my clients.

What made you want to join Residential Properties?

I chose to join Residential Properties because of their reputation for being a market leader while maintaining a personal touch and their strong connection to the local market. It’s a company that aligns with my belief that clients deserve a full-service experience. Being part of a team that stays ahead of market trends ensures I’m always providing the best possible data to the clients I represent so they are making the choices that are right for them.

What volunteer work do you do?

When I’m not touring homes, I’m passionate about giving back to the community that I am part of. I regularly volunteer with AIDS Care Ocean State, where I help with their monthly bingo and have been committed to raising funds for the Rhode Island branch of the ACLU. Currently I am sitting on Representative Seth Magaziner’s LGBTQ+ advisory committee. It’s important to me that I’m not just selling houses in a neighborhood, but actively contributing to its heartbeat.

What is your non-work life like?

I am a firm believer in staying active and constantly fueled by creative energy. As a true lover of nature, I spend as much time as possible outdoors – whether I’m hiking, biking, or swimming across our local landscapes. This connection to the environment keeps me grounded and energized. A significant part of my life is dedicated to the arts; I have a deep passion for performing and music, finding that the stage offers a unique outlet for expression and storytelling. When I’m ready to recharge, I turn to reading or cooking at home. A life well-lived is about finding harmony between a fast-paced professional world and the creative pursuits that keep me inspired.

What are you most looking forward to now that you are with Residential Properties?

My goal is simple: to become the most trusted resource for my clients and to help clients find their perfect “home base” this year. I’m looking forward to building lasting relationships and continuing to grow within the Residential Properties family.
