Kind, strategic, attentive, Ivy League educated Realtor looking to serve home buyers and sellers.
I've found that most people "don't care how much you know until they know how much you care". Embracing this philosophy has contributed to my professional (and personal) success.
Professionally, I have served Fortune 500 corporate organizations, and small privately owned companies alike.
My sales "career" began at age 8. I sold Girl Scout cookies door-to-door in a rural part of Monroe County. (I always wanted to earn the biggest cookie badge, so I really had to hustle. My mom and dad weren't the type to take the order sheet to work lol! So, I rode my bike from house-to-house in full Brownies uniform. When the weather got really bad my mom did have mercy and drove me from house-to-house. She always waited in the car at the curb. Thin Mints are still my favorite.) Then, in high school I sold enough citrus fruit to fund 100%+ of my annual WCCS band trip expenses. While working as a cashier at Wegmans, Hylan Drive, Henrietta, in the 1990s, a customer once said to me: "I think you will enjoy a very successful sales career someday." I thought that was so funny and crazy. Turns out they were right!
After earning my Master's Degree, I won my first "real" job in Knoxville, TN. I was a District Manager for Frito Lay. After serving Pepsi-Co for a couple of years, I moved into pharmaceutical sales. After pharma, I sold capital medical equipment. At the end of my corporate career, I sold multi-million dollar x-ray, MRI and CT equipment to C-Level Hospital Executives across Upstate, NY. Turns out it didn't matter if I was selling: cookies, fruit, snack foods, prescription pills, prescription dermatology products, external defibrillators, disposable medical supplies, or imaging equipment... I was always successful; and I always enjoyed the "process".
The skills I used and developed in "Corporate America" directly transferred to Real Estate sales. I love the real estate "process". Everyday, I get to help great people meet their real estate goals.
It's so satisfying to put a First Time Home Buyer into a great house, or help a seller client enter a new chapter of life. The price point doesn't matter. From a 65,000 dollar residential short sale in Leicester, NY to a 1,200,000 dollar horse farm in Nunda, NY... it's all challenging, and all satisfying.
Thanks for reading my profile. I'm so hopeful to work with and for you.
