Personal
I was born in Uruguay. When I was a little girl, my parents came to the U.S. seeking The American Dream. They eventually became proud U.S. citizens, homeowners, and eventually even landlords. They taught me to have a strong work ethic and they taught me that home ownership is a big piece of The American Dream.
I grew up in Connecticut and lived in Boston until 1996, when I came to the Seattle area as part of a Microsoft relocation. I have been a homeowner in the beautiful northern part Sammamish since then.
Loves of my life, apart from real estate, include my wonderful husband, Nick, who is a former chef (lucky me), my brilliant and idealistic daughter, Peri, who is a junior at Occidental College in Los Angeles and who graduated from The Overlake School, and my brilliant and talented son, John, who is a freshman at Lewis and Clark in Portland and who graduated from Eastlake HS in Sammamish. As their mom, I’ve learned a thing or two and I’ve gained an intimate knowledge of both the public and private schools in the area. I also dote on my three cats (don’t judge) and my bird: Birman champion and former queen Foo Foo, screwball Birman Ned who has his own Instagram following, 24 lb Maine Coon Rocco, and parakeet Reg. In my free time I love hot yoga, Orangetheory, hiking, eating great food, traveling, traveling specifically for the purpose of eating great food, design, meditation, and reading everything I can get my hands on.
