Your Local Real Estate Partner
Guided by principles of integrity, dignity and respect, buyers and sellers have consistently praised my meticulous attention to detail, mature and sophisticated guidance, negotiation strategies and tactics. As a top-producing, award winning Realtor since 2015, specializing in the Sarasota/Bradenton markets, I provide transparency, discretion, responsiveness, creative solution strategies, and a “deep bench” of contractors/experts, which allows for a smooth process and concierge level service. Whether buyer or seller, my focus is on you and your goals.
In my experience, at the end of the day every real estate transaction carries a uniqueness best equated to a fingerprint. The whorls and swirls of the individual markers of that transaction slowly reveal themselves throughout the process. The value of having an intuitive Realtor, with the instincts, local market acumen, negotiation expertise and maturity to respond and anticipate deftly and wisely is vital to a satisfactory conclusion.
Whether an out-of-state buyer, homeowner downsizing, or first-time homeowner, my passion revolves around gaining a firm grasp on your particular real estate goals, defining a process upon which we agree, and you understand wholly, and committing to its execution in a robust and serious manner. And most importantly, delivering on that process.
Prior to my real estate career, I founded a Veterinary company in California, growing it to a 17-state chain. Clearly, homes with pets are a very high priority to this Realtor! A career with Four Seasons Hotels in hospitality management preceded the Animal Hospital years. I have three grown, marvelous children, a grand dog named Scully, and love kayaking, swimming and all the cultural offerings in Sarasota. Come explore the marvelous, active lifestyle here on the Suncoast with me!

Melissa was the best. I found a property on Zillow, but it was listed incorrectly. She persevered, found the property and assisted in negotiating my purchase. I am now living in the condo that I found with Melissa's help.
