I grew up in Manhattan Beach, CA enjoying days in the sun, sand and water,  I was planning to pursue a
career in Real Estate when I was offered a job at Delta Air Lines.  I decided to accept and spend a couple of
years traveling.  A couple of years turned into 28 years.  I've seen a good part of the world and lived in
Dallas, TX and Atlanta, GA.  

I have seriously considered moving to New Zealand, Australia, and Costa Rica.  However, from my
experiences, there is no finer place on earth than right here and I am happy to call it home.  

While now enjoying this next phase of life, I've invested in area real estate.  When I return to my CA school
reunions, I always hear my classmates talk about how they wish they had invested in beach area real estate.  
I just smile.  The real estate market, like most things, is cylindrical.  No, its not where it was a few years ago,
but monetarily, what is?  How many beaches are there?  How many islands?  How can you go wrong?  No
guarantees, but I still believe in this area and the future.

Who would have dreamed all those management classes at Delta would prove so valuable now?  My last 2
assignments were as Project Manager for Y2K Business Processing Testing and then as liaison between our
frontline employees and our technology partners.  So, needless to say, I have a lot of negotiation
background, understand the importance of being available for the customer, customer service, and the need
for timely, correct answers.

I am living my dream of returning to life at the beach and share it with my four 4-legged children (all rescues).  
Stormy, an afghan (he scares everyone to death at 1st, but is really a big baby), Rose, an afghan (Stormy's
daughter, she keeps the 'boys' in line), Docker, a dachshund (the devil dog, but a lover) and Hawk, a
greyhound (he's our most recent addition to the family, I think he is beginning to think he is an afghan.  He's a pistol.)

I have added to my love of real estate and this area by becoming a licensed FL Realtor.
