About:
Born in Texas, I lived overseas as a youth in Santiago, Chile, then later in Washington, DC and subsequently in Boston Massachusetts. I attended Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine. I moved back to Boston after graduating in 1978 with an undergraduate degree in psychology. Following college for a period of 16 years I worked in the emerging field of information systems for companies that included Arthur D. Little, Inc., Fidelity Investments and several others. While working for Arthur D. Little, where I was one of the youngest members of the professional staff, I provided consulting services to Fortune 500 companies helping them design, build and deploy databases. At Fidelity Investments in marketing systems I implemented a multi-terabyte database to analyze customer behavior using techniques in an emerging field now called data mining. In 1994 I left Boston and moved to Annapolis, Maryland. I came to Annapolis for a new adventure and to sail the Chesapeake Bay. Over a six years period I worked first for T. Rowe Price and then later for Oracle Corporation. At T. Rowe Price I had leadership responsibility for the strategy, design and specification of applications, setting data standards, and technical direction for marketing information systems within the retail marketing group. While working for Oracle Corporation I managed consulting services for several major Federal civilian accounts that included Centers for Medicare/Medicaid Services (CMS, formerly the Health Care Financing Administration, HCFA), Social Security Administration (SSA), and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). In 2001, following the events of 9/11, I left the corporate world behind to embark on a career in real estate. For my first three years in real estate I practiced in Annapolis, Maryland at Long & Foster Realtors then I spent a short time with Keller Williams Select Realtors. In 2006 after obtaining an Associate Broker license, I moved my real estate practice and team of five to the Annapolis Plaza office of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage. In 2013 I moved my real estate practice again, this time to the Gulf Coast in Sarasota Florida to live, work and play on the Suncoast along the West coast of Florida. With over 400 transactions ranging in price from $300,000 to $3,000,000 for more than $95M in sales, I successfully market homes for people that wish to sell them and help those people who want to buy their perfect dream home. I am your Trusted Advisor, Master Marketer, Skillful Negotiator, Expert Facilitator, and Real Estate Agent. When not practicing real estate, I am an avid sailor with 20,000-plus nautical miles of documented sailing experience on the open ocean. I’ve sailed many blue water voyages that include briny blue journeys from Boston to Annapolis (single-handed), Annapolis to Bermuda, Annapolis to Tortola BVI, Bermuda to Camden Maine, and many shorter adventures along the Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Maryland and Virginia coastlines. As one of Sarasota Florida’s premier real estate agents, I have the knowledge, insight and experience to make your next move a complete success. So when you’re ready to buy or sell your next home, give me a call. You’ll find that with the right professional by your side, you can Live the Lifestyle and Live, Work and Play in Sarasota Florida.
