My mission: a passionate commitment to you
The Washington DC area is one of the country's most vibrant metropolitain areas and a wonderful place to live. The mix of private enterprise, non-profit associations and U.S. and international government agencies, attracts new residents every day and keeps long-time residents active. The sights of our nation's capital, the many museums (many of them with free admission), and a thriving theater and arts community contribute to its quality of life. According to the national rankings in numerous magazines, Montgomery County MD and some of the Northern Virginia suburbs boast many of the best public high schools in the USA.
Whether you are arriving in this area from somewhere across oceans, across the country, whether you are an investor or are just moving a few blocks away, you will want someone with passion, knowledge and uncompromising commitment to your needs and interests to be your guide in any real estate transaction.
I specialize in Montgomery County, MD (with particular knowledge of Bethesda, Chevy Chase, Kensington, Rockville, and Silver Spring); Arlington, Fairfax and Loudoun Counties, in Northern Virginia, as well as the adjacent communities of Washington DC.

Statement of Purpose
As your agent, my job is to help you make the best decision about buying or selling your home, whether or not that results in a fee paid to us ~ My goal is to work so well on your behalf and deliver such service that you will want me to be your family real estate consultant for life ~
What Makes Me Different
No one is going to work harder than me to find the best possible price for your home ~ I will listen to your needs and understand the deep emotional issues facing the buyer - "Your home is my home" - I will provide you with the same level of effort and quality of service as if I were buying or selling my own home ~ My passion for solving the special needs of my international and French-speaking clients makes me a better agent for all my clients.
When selling homes I give my clients' properties the best international exposure on the internet, by investing substantially in search engine optimization and quality virtual tours.
Local Expertise ~ Global Advantage
With a unique understanding of international cultural nuances, one of my specialties is working with international clients. I have the professional expertise that makes me the ideal agent to take newly arrived international buyers by the hand and walk them through the complexities of home buying. My State Department-certified French interpreting skills allow me to function at the highest level in transactions with the francophone client. Solving the special needs of the international client has helped to make me a "problem solver" for all my clients.
I am equally well-versed in working with first-time home-buyers, who benefit for the extraordinary customer care that is my hallmark. And I have the proven marketing and sales skills to master the changing market when it comes time to sell your home.
I have assisted Foreign Embassies in making property purchases and have developed special lender relationships that allow me to cater to the unique needs of the diplomatic and foreign community. Diplomats with A1 or A2 visas -- call me for more information on the special lender program that may allow you to obtain a mortgage in order to purchase your residence in America.
Always seeking new ways to improve the services offered to my clients, I regularly participate in continuing education classes, above and beyond what is needed to maintain my licenses in 3 jurisdictions. The latest series completed is the National Association of Realtors' GRI, a designation held by only 19% of Realtors® nationwide.
