Tell us one of your client success stories or an interesting moment in your profession.
I just ran into a past client of mine that I haven't seen in at least 6 years. She was driving past my house with her dog. She saw me and got out of her car with her puppy. She was so enthusiastic about the house that she and her husband bought with me many years ago. She turned to her dog and said, "This is the great agent that found your mommy and daddy their home so that we could have you." It was very cute.
What is your best characteristic?
I have many traits that lend themselves to being a superior real estate agent: dilligence, perserverance, intelligence, friendliness, great communication skills and a genuine personal investment in all of my clients.
Who or what inspires you the most?
Doing my best at any given moment. There are no regrets or second guesses if you are doing the best that you can in any specific time.
What is the best advice you ever received?
I don't think there is 'best advice'. I think that you take a little knowledge from everyone you meet and every different situation that you encounter. You take the little pieces that are significant to you and store them away to expand yourself. It would be a shame not to learn from all of the diverse people, places and situations that you encounter.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?
Things are pretty great in the DC Metropolitan area. I'd like to visit a lot of places but I like it here. Although, if I had all of the money in the world without a care to go with it, London is a great city.
