With a professional background centered around working with people, real estate was a natural fit. Connecting with someone new, hearing their story, and helping them find the right place allows me to combine what I enjoy most with my love for Chicago. I genuinely enjoy getting to know the city neighborhood by neighborhood—from the homes and architecture to the local restaurants, bars, and hidden gems that give each area its personality.

Originally from Maryland, I attended college in Arizona before making Chicago home. When I’m not working with clients, there’s a good chance I’m exploring a new corner of the city or tracking down a great neighborhood dive bar—bonus points if it has a particularly creative Malört display or experience.

At home, I have a teacup Shih Tzu named Wesley, a brindle black-and-white little guy named after my favorite contestant from The Real World: The Challenge.

And one final unexpected fact: I can do the splits on the spot.
