About
Arlington Local Expert & 30-Year Military Spouse | Associate Broker, RLAH | 560+ Successful Transactions
For more than 13 years, I’ve helped families plant roots in the neighborhoods I’m proud to call home. As an Arlington resident and seasoned real estate professional, I specialize in the fast-moving Northern Virginia market—where speed, strategy, and hyper-local insight make all the difference.
For First-Time Buyers:
I’m an educator at heart. With over 560 transactions closed, I guide buyers through every step of the process from navigating competitive bidding wars in Arlington to uncovering hidden-gem neighborhoods in Fairfax and Alexandria that offer long-term value.
For Military Families:
I speak your language. After 30+ years as a military spouse, I understand the “PCS clock” and the pressure that comes with it. I help families relocating to and from the Pentagon, Fort Belvoir, and Quantico find homes that balance BAH, commute, and lifestyle—without unnecessary stress.
As an Associate Broker with RLAH, and former Managing Broker of Buck & Associates, I bring together a background in Psychology and Interior Design with deep market knowledge and strong negotiation skills. This allows me to see both the potential in a property and the strategy needed to protect my clients’ interests.
Originally from Maine, I’ve made Northern Virginia home through multiple moves and deployments. When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me exploring Arlington’s newest local spots or traveling with my husband, Ken, our grown children, and our rescue dog, Wanda.
Northern Virginia is more than a collection of zip codes, it’s a community. I’d love to help you find your place in it.

It’s hard to beat a closing that brings an old friend back into your life. 💙 Kelly and I first worked together on a real estate transaction back in 2014, when she was the lender and I was still early in my real estate career. She’s also a West Point graduate, like my husband, so we’ve shared plenty of mutual friends and connections over the years. Today, I had the privilege of helping Kelly and her husband, Dan, close on their new home as they relocate from Alabama to Arlington, Virginia. And what a home it is! They’re moving into a beautiful 1920s American Foursquare filled with original charm and character, right in Ballston, one of Arlington’s most walkable and sought-after neighborhoods. Helping an old friend make her way back to Northern Virginia was incredibly meaningful. Kelly and Dan, welcome home! I’m so happy to have you here and can’t wait to see you make this special house your own. 🏡 #ArlingtonVA #BallstonVA #ArlingtonRealEstate #NorthernVirginiaRealEstate #NorthernVirginiaRealtor
Found the perfect Northern Virginia home because of the schools? Check the address before you get too attached. The school information shown on a real estate website is a starting point, not a guarantee. Boundaries can change, homes on the same street may be assigned to different schools, and third-party sites do not always update immediately. Before making a housing decision, enter the exact property address into your county’s official school boundary locator. If it is a new development or the information is unclear, confirm it directly with the school division. Save this for your Northern Virginia home search. One quick check now can prevent a major surprise later. #NorthernVirginiaHomes #ArlingtonVA #PCSToVirginia #HomebuyingTips #NorthernVirginiaRealEstate
