Personal BackgroundI first acquired my real estate license in 1985 and practiced until the early ‘90s when I transitioned into a 15 year career in marketing promotions and strategic partnerships for advertising and media agencies. During that time, I had the opportunity to work during the dot com boom as one of the first employees of eHow.com. Born and raised in Rhode Island and Pennsylvania, then moving to San Francisco, I craved the idea of owning a home with a yard, a garage and a downtown with a small town feel along with the amenities of the big city I’d become accustomed to. My husband and I decided to move to one of the world’s great cities - Petaluma. After moving to Petaluma, it became clear that it was time to put my energies back into Real Estate and leverage all the customer service, marketing, sales and best practices tools I had acquired in my other work roles in corporate America.

Why Do You Love Petaluma?
2014′s Butter & Egg Days Parade was another huge success! Petalumans came out in droves to celebrate the beauty, diversity, and community within our small town. We hit the streets to hear the millions of reasons that Petaluma Rocks, and have put them together in a video to share the P-Town love.
