As an Eastern Shore Realtor, I know that a real estate transaction is built on trust. I pride myself on my honesty and integrity in providing the highest quality representation for my clients. I have spent my entire life in Chestertown and on the Chesapeake Bay and have a deep respect and understanding for why life here is so special. You can rely on my deep knowledge of the eastern shore and its waterways when buying a home. As an Eastern Shore native, full-time Realtor and licensed Attorney, I have the skill set to help you navigate any real estate transaction; waterfront, farms, commercial, you name it. Buying or selling real estate requires an experienced and trustworthy advocate. Let me be your guide. Growing up on the banks of the Chester River, I was fortunate enough to enjoy everything the Chesapeake Bay has to offer, whether crabbing, fishing or just about every water-sport you can think of. After graduating from Washington College with a B.A. in Economics and Finance, I attended University of Baltimore School of Law. Working full time and going to school at night, I graduated cum laude and proceeded to clerk for the Honorable Harris P. Murphy, Circuit Court of Kent County, Md. That’s when I decided to make a drastic career shift to practicing full time as a Realtor in 2021. Since then I have enjoyed showing others why life on the shore really is the land of pleasant living. Outside of real estate, I enjoy getting exercise with my black lab, playing pickleball, soccer and racing the historic log canoe sail boats up and down the Chesapeake Bay.
