Like so many who now call South Florida home, I wasn't born here—I chose to be here. And I chose it because I love it.

I'm a native New Yorker who went to college in the Boston area and stayed for decades, drawn to the charm of New England’s landscapes, culture, and community. For over 25 years, I had the privilege of working as one of Coldwell Banker’s top agents in Massachusetts, specializing in country homes, horse properties, and historic residences in towns like Bolton, Harvard, and Concord. I have extensive experience successfully working with relocating buyers and sellers, understanding their special needs and requirements and knowing how to help them navigate a process that can sometimes be challenging, over a period of weeks and months, if needed.

Eventually, though, I traded snowy winters for sandy beaches. It was a big decision—but the right one. And now I help others make similar life-changing moves with insight, empathy, expertise, and a plan.

Whether you're thinking of relocating across the country, finding your first home in South Florida, or moving just a few miles away, it's a meaningful step—and I’d be honored to walk it with you. I’ve experienced the emotional and logistical complexities of a long-distance move firsthand. I know what works and how to make your transition feel smooth, exciting, and even joyful.

There’s so much more to life here than sun and surf (though those are wonderful). Let me introduce you to tranquil parks, lush gardens, and hidden-gem neighborhoods that offer a sense of “peace of place”—sometimes in places you might not expect.

If you’re just starting to wonder whether this move could be possible, or if you’re already narrowing down neighborhoods, I’m here to help—without pressure, and with all the knowledge I’ve gathered from years of experience and hundreds of client journeys.

I now live in Boca Raton with my two beautiful Cavaliers and three cats, all of whom adapted beautifully to our new lifestyle. If you’re wondering how to move with pets, I’ve been through it—and I’ll gladly show you how to make it work for your whole family.

Wherever you are in your journey, I’d love to hear your story—and help you write the next chapter.

I have developed special resources for buyers who are thinking about moving here from other countries, especially from Great Britain and South America. These include multi-language waterfront home tours, and a Guide for UK Citizens who want to purchase a home in South Florida. Please reach out if I can offer assistance as you contemplate whether this is a move that makes sense for you and your family.
