February 2025 marks 35 years since I started my career as a real estate agent. It’s an adventure that has come with its fair share of ups and downs, but through it all, I have always loved having a seat at the table when people are making big decisions about where their family lives.
In 2019, Compass was an emerging brokerage looking to establish a presence in the Hinsdale-area market. The company came to town with the same enthusiasm and grit that I’ve brought to all my years in the business – so it seemed like a great match.
While I’m proud to be one of the first agents with Compass’ Hinsdale office, I’m also proud of how much this branch has expanded to include many of my trusted colleagues in the area. And, nationwide, Compass is now the largest residential real estate brokerage in the United States by sales volume. And, as of December 2024, Compass has officially gone global with the acquisition of @properties and Christie’s International Real Estate. The growth has been exponential and sustainable – and I’m proud to be a part of it.
Compass’ fresh approach, including industry-changing and proprietary technology, has evolved the way I support my clients. Just recently, Compass launched the industry’s first-ever all-in-one client dashboard which can effectively connect agents and their clients in real-time.
More than anything, these last 35 years have given me an unmatched opportunity to stay connected to my community. To serve my friends, family, neighbors…and support their meaningful moves.
If 2025 might bring you and your family into a new home, I would be honored to support you on your buying and selling journey.
