My passion for residential real estate blossomed from a young age, surrounded by beautiful homes in the San Francisco Bay Area where I grew up. However, it didn't sit well with me how out-of-reach these homes were for many, with most people settling for properties that just minimize their commutes to work. Upon moving to Chicago in the summer of 2018, I was pleased to see "how much more house" buyers get for their money here. The accessibility allows for buyers to find homes that reflect their personalities and lifestyles, rather than just providing four walls that are "close enough" to their workplace. After spending several years in Chicago, I realized that I had attained strong local knowledge across the city, and started on the path to becoming a licensed realtor. Once I passed my licensing exam, I was thrilled to get to hang my license with @ Properties and to receive highly experienced guidance within The Grossman Group. In my first couple of years licensed, many of my clients have been first-time homebuyers, and I'm honored to have helped them reach their goals of homeownership. The greatest reward I receive from my work as a realtor, is a random text from a past client, telling me how happy they are in their home, and thanking me for helping them make it happen.
