A little bit about me...
I started my professional career as a controller in the Financial Service Industry, and until 1997 provided accounting services for small businesses. While raising two children, I decided to change careers and began working as a mortgage loan originator. By the year 2000, I had opened my own mortgage brokerage and cemented my career in the real estate sector. I continue in the wholesale mortgage industry as a loan originator keeping current on financing options for today’s buyers.
In 2004, I obtained my real estate broker’s license and expanded my business. For the first seven years of my real estate practice, I focused exclusively on buyer representation. As time went on, I found myself dedicating more of my time to real estate transactions and less to mortgage services, ultimately branching out to seller-side transactions and small commercial transactions. No matter the type of transaction, my real estate practice has always been characterized by a dedication to integrity, collaboration, and elevating professional standards. I believe that true success is not measured by the volume of transactions completed but by the fulfillment of clients' goals and the strength of the relationships built throughout the process.
While I continue to serve my clients with this same standard of care, I also felt a strong pull to be part of broader efforts to address emerging challenges affecting the industry at large. To that end, in 2018, I decided to volunteer with my local real estate board. While my volunteering started at the local level, I later took on additional commitments at the state and national levels. I strive to continue to participate where needed in committee positions and leadership roles contributing to elevating the level of professional services provided to our industry. Volunteering my time along with taking advantage of educational resources through real estate designations, has proven to be integral to my professional development.
With more than 20 years of competitive experience as a Real Estate Broker and business owner, I have been fortunate to maintain a successful business throughout the years. Looking back on my career, I am deeply grateful to those who encouraged and supported me along the way. This not only includes my family and my team of agents, but also the colleagues I have met through my leadership journey. I take pride in my commitment to volunteering and paying it forward, whether by mentoring my team of licensed agents or sharing insights with my community of REALTORS®.
As my business continues to grow, I look forward to the future with excitement and a renewed sense of purpose

Long Island’s seller-leaning market is changing the way buyers approach homeownership, here’s how to stay ahead. 🏡
With fewer homes available and more buyers in the mix, it’s easy to feel like you’re stuck chasing listings and competing over every offer. This repeated cycle can lead to frustration, exhaustion and the urge to just hit pause on your search. Buyers often find themselves recalibrating priorities on the fly, adjusting not just on price but on lifestyle, commute and the home’s condition. This pressure isn’t just financial, it takes a real emotional toll when every decision feels urgent and the market pace leaves no room to regroup.
The smartest move isn’t about outbidding everyone else, it’s about shifting the process in your favor. Clarify your non-negotiables, secure a true pre-commitment over a pre-approval and narrow your search to towns that genuinely fit your comfort zone. Setting clear walk-away limits gives you confidence and keeps stress manageable. Remember, focusing on what you can control (like timing, preparation, and negotiation strategy) helps turn a daunting process into one that’s grounded and intentional. Local guidance and the right team can provide frameworks to help you step back, realign, and avoid burnout, so you move forward with clarity, not compromise. 🗂️✨ visit go.stoningtonrealtyllc.com/buy It is time to reset and move forward with a new plan.
