I am a full-time REALTOR with Douglas Elliman, --my home office is in Alexandria, while our office-office is in McLean. I help my clients buy, sell, and lease homes, land and occasionally commercial property, too.  And I LOVE what I do, unusual as that may be!  While not gay, I have had and helped many LGBTQ friends and clients who became friends. I have a diverse professional background, with common threads throughout, the main one being client/customer relations. I have always held (and enjoyed) independent, leadership positions requiring proficiency in individual and group dynamics, management, technical and organizational skills, and public/customer relations. Originally a Realtor in the late 1980's and into the '90's, I finally came back to my true calling in 2010. Specialties: Marketing the property! Statistical analysis, written and verbal communication, relationship building, troubleshooting and problem solving, negotiation/mediation, conflict resolution, labor relations, team-building, customer/public relations.
