I proudly joined the Keyes Company Family in 2004 as a new Realtor determined to learn the South Florida Market, provide my customers with exceptional service, and be on a path to long-term success. I was awarded the prestigious first-ever Master Field Trainer designation by our Chairman, Ted Pappas, having mentored and assisted over 20 new Keyes Associates in closing their first three transactions in record time. Mr. Pappas was also a huge part of my inter-company growth by hosting the Leadership Cadre program, of which I was the first graduate of my class to be hired to branch management in 2007. Being District Sales Manager to the Keyes Coral Springs/Parkland team has been the most precious and rewarding experience for me, with many more ahead. We have grown from 54 agents to over 150 agents. With consistent coaching, care, dedication, and the willingness to grow together, we have become the best Real Estate Firm in NE Broward. Joining the Broward/Miami Association of Realtors followed by being selected as a Governor, 2014 President, and 2016 Chairman of The Board expanded my passion to volunteer and fight for Realtors and Homeowners. I have also served as Board Secretary, Treasurer and As our District Vice President for our region. Numerous Committee positions on both State and National levels keep me involved and in the now. In the past two Years, in looking at the Keyes future growth model, I opened our first ever office in the beautiful city of Fort Myers on the West Coast. This has now resulted in the addition of several more Keyes offices on the West Coast. I am so excited about what the future holds for both myself and my two grown children as we continue to live, work and love our amazing Florida.

As a result of living in Rome, Italy for ten years, my life has been influenced by different cultures and experiences. Those influences continue to enhance my life today in South Florida.Having had the privilege of an extensive education, I am fluent in the English, Spanish, and Italian languages. The ability to communicate with so many people in our diverse culture has been a tremendous advantage in my Real Estate career.My entrepreneurial ambitions began in early adulthood, motivating me to open several successful restaurants, including Renzi’s Café on Ocean Drive in South Beach and Mangia Mangia Ristorante also in Miami Beach. After working for more than a decade in the hospitality business, I married, and shortly after learning that a baby was on the way, a new career opportunity was presented to me in the textile industry. I embraced the opportunity to become a partner in a new and lucrative chain of clothing stores.Looking for new challenges, I then obtained my Real Estate license and today enjoy my career as a full-time Realtor. My myriad work experiences, along with my educational background in Business Administration, have proven to be tremendous assets in this profession. I am dedicated to 100% customer satisfaction because above all else, I strive to become your Realtor for life.In 2009 I became District Sales Manager of my office and since then I help my Realtors grow their business and help their customers. Using my experience as a Realtor-Associate and now as a Manager, Coach & Partner, helping my Associates and clients achieve their dreams is what makes my career so worthwhile.
