With a career spanning incredible brands like Wine Spectator, The Knot, The Atlantic, and The Weather Channel, she brings a wealth of experience and a genuine love of connecting with people. For her, the best part of customer service is finding a solution and making someone’s day a little brighter.
A Jersey girl at heart, she grew up in Livingston, New Jersey, where some of her favorite memories happened in the kitchen. Her dad’s famous Johnny Bread was a wintertime tradition, made in a cast iron pan with flour, sugar, and a whole lot of butter. The smell would fill the kitchen, and as soon as it came out of the oven, everyone was ready for a bite!
Her grandmother, affectionately known as Nani, passed down another treasured kitchen tradition: her incredible Italian gravy. Nani never measured or followed a recipe, but she always had one rule—patience. The gravy needed hours to simmer alongside her meatballs and braciole, with pasta always served al dente (or else!). To this day, no one has quite been able to recreate it. Those family food memories are a big part of why her favorite foods are her grandma’s braciole and a classic New Jersey bagel with veggie cream cheese.
Now calling Texas home, she’s added a few new favorites to the list, including The Argyle Social, where happy hour means crispy wings and a spicy margarita. When she’s not connecting with clients, you might find her tending to her houseplants, playing the piano—a passion she’s had since age six—or enjoying her newest talent, pickleball!
She shares her home with her two dogs, Charlie and Stella, and loves spending time in the kitchen, where she enjoys the smells, the sounds, and especially the conversations. For her, the kitchen has always been a place where people gather and memories are made.
A lover of travel, she fell in love with Rome and Florence when she was younger and hopes to return someday with her husband and son. And when she’s dreaming of the perfect getaway, Aruba—with its beautiful weather, sandy beaches, and refreshing Aruba Ariba—is always at the top of her list.
Her motto? Carpe diem! And whether she’s helping a client, sharing a family recipe, or simply making someone’s day a little brighter, she brings warmth, care, and a genuine love of people to everything she does.
