I taught Elementary Education for 35 years. I also worked in the real estate business on and off during that period of time. I retired in June 2009 and chose to go into real estate full time upon retirement because I enjoy working with people, families and businesses to help them find the perfect place for them to live and do business. I moved to Chatham in 1973 and have been an active member in the community  while raising 3 sons with my husband and helping these sons care for our grandchildren . I serve on several MLS/ Real Estate board committees. I also held a seat on the Chatham Central school board for 9 years.I also served on Sean's Run steering committee,and also am the treasurer of the CCSTRA. I feel it is important to give back to my community. My skills include thorough researching and showing properties, negotiating sales and other skills needed to get to the closing table and complete the deal. I also completed Mark Leader's Listing Boot Camp. I would be honored if you were to choose me for your next real estate transaction- either helping you find your next home or selling your present dwelling.
