ABOUT:

Simply said, I am a Dreamcatcher – for YOU. Whether you want to buy or sell, real estate is all about YOU and your goals and what YOU want to improve by buying or selling real estate.

My tagline is "Change Your View."
Take it literally or figuratively—both work.
My personal business website is
www.ChangeYourView.net
It’s promoted on my car, in mailouts, in advertising, on radio and online.
I have been in the biz for several years and am passionate about helping people catch their dreams.

I am happy to patiently work with Buyers and am Relocation-certified. I work primarily in Greenwood, on Lake Greenwood, Abbeville, Hodges, Ware Shoals, Waterloo, Cross Hill, Ninety Six, Chappels and Saluda- all lovely areas in the upper Piedmont area (NW) of Upstate South Carolina.


For Sellers, I offer “Extreme Marketing,” so named because it goes way beyond the 3 “P”s of passive marketing (put it on MLS, put up a sign, put on a lockbox). I am e-certified and internet savvy, and know that strong online exposure is crucial in today’s market. You can benefit from my extensive databases of local and out-of area potential buyers for direct mail campaigns, and my ever-growing roster of out-of-area/out-of-state real estate agents who may refer your buyer. I also believe that strong local business networking and community involvement make positive contributions towards achieving my clients’ goals so I am actively involved in several organizations and always networking on your behalf:
Professional Network Connections-Grwd, president;

Greenwood Chamber of Commerce- member
Greenwood Chamber Small Business Committee, member

Business & Professional Women of Greenwood, member
Abbeville Chamber of Commerce, member

Keep Greenwood County Beautiful, Vice Chair

Adopt-A-Highway, (several groups!), volunteer
Humane Society, volunteer

 

I am ALWAYS working to help you catch your dream!

 

 

 


BACKGROUND

I graduated from Fordham University, NYC, (a long time ago) with a BA in Communications. Before I "found" real estate, I was Director of Corp. Communications for a global public maritime firm that operated large fleets of tugboats, tankers, and offshore oil rig support vessels. I joined this company following its emergence from Chapter 11 to effect its rebranding; improve image/reputation to attract customers and retain/attract employees. This was primarily a 4-year in-the-office job, but I learned a great deal about "the big picture" and how to implement systems & projects that get results. Before that position, I had an incredible job for 13 yrs as Public Relations Manager at a major seaport, working with Cruise, Cargo and Navy. I set up educational outreach programs with the Navy and NATO, honed my creative skills with dozens of award-wining marketing projects and programs, enjoyed celebrity cruise events, promoted manatee and environmental awareness and coordinated media fly-outs to aircraft carriers (yes, I am a Tailhooker). I learned all about the importance of the "people factor," the value of networking, the impact of marketing tools, and the crucial necessity for attention to detail. Before that, I was Editor of a weekly newspaper where I learned that “time is of the essence” (deadlines) and to work really hard for very little money and like it (don’t laugh). Passion for what you do makes life interesting.

 

All of these wonderful careers led me to real estate. My Brit husband of more than decade and our menagerie of pets keep me balanced and happy, and real estate keeps me empowered and motivated. It’s GOOD to be the Dreamcatcher. Can I be yours?
