As my faithful followers know, in addition to my career in real estate, I have long enjoyed a career in opera, both as a singer and a general director.  Recently, a friend of mine suggested that I submit a proposal to an organization called IGNITE BALTIMORE.  At the time, I knew nothing about th...

Many of my blog followers know that my first career was in the field of opera.  Time on the road and away from the family, made switching my JOB (opera) and HOBBY (real estate) a couple of years ago, pretty easy!  Now, I still do sing on occasion, and I also run a small opera company here in Balt...

I was meeting with a business development group this past week (yes, I know, hard to believe that networking still takes place off of the net!) and wanted to share an interesting story.   A colleague of mine is a loan officer with a bank that was recently acquired by another company.  In all of t...

Now, I am not so much of a "resolution" person, because I'm usually no good at keeping them.  I do, however relish the New Year, as it is a time to reflect on the previous year, assess your victories and failures and plan for what lies ahead in the new year. I have realized that if I take a few d...

Following up on my previous blog post about the powerful combination of GOOGLE MAPS, and the Verizon DROID phone, I thought I would also share some thoughts about another free service offered by Google, called Google Voice.  This tool is almost singlehandedly changing the way I do business.   How...
