I have made the Mad River Valley my home for over 25 years. I have been a Realtor  with Sugarbush Real Estate since 1998. Sugarbush Real Estate has the most MLS transactions & highest gross sales volume in the Mad River Valley from 1999 TO 2007.

I try to help people explore different options, whether it is to rent or purchase or sell a home, land or condominium. High pressure sales tactics are not my style. I see my role as to provide people with information to the best of my ability to assist guiding them in making informed decisions. Throughout the process of purchasing property, I assist in all aspects of the transaction.. This includes, but is not limited to recommending mortgage lenders, building inspectors and contractors.

As a parent of 3 teenagers/young adults I am very well acquainted with our local schools and other resources for families. I enjoy working with people and introducing them to other aspects of living in this area.

I am presently the Central Vermont Board of Realtors representative on the Board of Directors for the Vermont Association of Realtors.

Community Groups

At Boys To Men, through a structured yet informal program, we have created a unique and safe place where boys between the ages of 12 and 16 can regularly interact with committed, conscientious adult men. With the understanding that inside each boy is a "man of honor," we help these boys discover their own individual strengths, talents and gifts. Armed with this information, these boys can then develop positive life skills and goals that can be expressed in their lives and shared within their community.

Call to Dance

The healing power of movement, the experience of belonging to community: dancing, singing, storytelling.  Bring it all to your school, library, church, synagogue; or share with life partners, friends, and family in your own home. Give some special form to the fun your guests can have at a wedding or other celebrations.

We can move our feet and hands and raise our voices in unison to mark the rhythms of music and folk dances from sources ranging from Native American, African, Latin, and Middle Eastern to Western European, Celtic, Greek, and Israeli. I will bring an appropriate music and dance program to your community. It is a group activity that requires no partners or any previous experience. All steps are taught from the very beginning and dances are selected from those easiest to learn.

To cover travel, preparation expenses and rent, a donation is requested ($5-10), but no one will be turned away.  Call to learn more and discuss what we can do in your community to bring people together with the spirit and joy of dance.
