In 1976 when I graduated from Bayside High School in Bayside Queens, New York I told everyone that I was going to be an attorney, my mom bragged to all in her church family about her daughter "the lawyer" I had not even completed my undergraduate degree, but in her eyes I was the family's attorney at law.  Well my passion became alive after working with a couple of fortune five companies in New York and understanding office politics sitting at a desk for 8 to 14 hours five days per week was definitely not enlightening.  It soon became apparent that I was not the best paper pusher in the world, and being indoors for that many hours was just not my thing.  I love helping people realize their dreams, and I love beautiful real estate, so one day while working for one of the largest brokerage firms in New York, an office mate asked if I had ever thought of becoming a real estate agent? and I said why, and she answered I just think you would make a great agent. Bells went off in my head, a few months after that conversation I got my real estate license and the rest is history.  Twenty (20) plus years in the business and my passion has not wavered, what better market to truly be of assistance to people than this one.
