Licensed Real Estate Broker | Community Advocate | Local Market Expert

Born and raised in Greenwich, I have a lifelong connection to the community I proudly serve. A graduate of the Greenwich public school system and longtime participant in local recreational and sports programs, I’ve built deep roots here—roots that now extend to my own children, who’ve followed similar paths in both academics and athletics. As a Licensed Real Estate Broker since 1999, I bring over two decades of trusted experience, professionalism, and hyper-local market knowledge to every client relationship. I currently work as a Broker Associate at Compass CT’s Greenwich office and am a proud graduate of the Real Estate Institute. I also hold certifications as a Business Development Agent and Certified Real Estate Negotiator, and I’m a licensed Notary Public. Clients know me as a strategic, organized professional who educates, advocates, and provides patient, personalized guidance throughout every stage of the buying and selling process. I’m always available—whether it’s preparing your home for market, navigating negotiations, or troubleshooting the unexpected. I pride myself on thinking creatively and finding smart, tailored solutions to any challenge. Outside of real estate, I enjoy spending time with my family and giving back to the community. I have a deep love for animals and am passionate about supporting local rescues and advocacy efforts. Whether I’m assisting a client or volunteering my time, I approach every commitment with heart, integrity, and dedication. Professional Affiliations

Darla and Ripp hit the streets of Greenwich to get the scoop on the October market 🍂

📊 38 single-family home sales in October, up 5.6% from last year
🏡 115 homes on the market as of November 2
⏳ Just 2.5 months of supply, so buyers still need to move quickly
💎 26 sales over $10 million so far this year

Inventory is still tight, especially at the lower price points, and the right home won’t wait. Whether you’re buying, selling, or just curious what your home is worth in this market, I’d love to help you make a plan.

DM me or call anytime. Ripp will handle the yard inspection. 🐾

The fall market is quieter on the surface, but serious buyers are still very much out there. This is the season when the motivated buyers show up and the browsers stay home.

Well-priced homes are still moving, and with less competition out there, sellers who list now get the spotlight. Buyers, this is your window to negotiate before the spring rush.

📩 The full Greenwich & Stamford report is linked in the comments. Curious what your home is worth in today’s market? Let’s talk. I cover Greenwich, Stamford, and all of Fairfield County.

Greenwich Point has entered its off-season access period: no park pass is required from November 1 through April 30.

Darla and Ripley were ready to celebrate immediately, but their own season begins December 1. Leashed and licensed dogs are welcomed through March 31, so they are practicing their patient faces until then.

Darla’s is excellent. Ripley’s has concerns. 🐩🐕🌊

Before you list, wouldn’t it be nice to know how many buyers are already looking for a home like yours?

That’s exactly what our Compass Buyer Demand Tool shows us. It tracks what buyers are doing right now, from saved searches to the homes they’re collecting and watching, so we can see how many serious buyers are active at your price point. No guessing.

Comps tell us where the market has been. This tells us where it is today. Put the two together and you get a pricing strategy built on real numbers.

Thinking about selling in Greenwich or Stamford? Let’s sit down and look at the demand for your home. I’m happy to walk you through it, no pressure.

Opportunity rarely waits for us to feel ready. 📣

Most of the time, what holds us back isn't a bad choice. It's no choice at all. We tell ourselves we'll decide next month, once things settle, once we know more. And in the meantime, life keeps moving without us.

Here's the truth: a decision made with courage will almost always take you further than a perfect plan that never leaves your head.

So whatever you've been sitting on, whether it's a big move, a fresh start, or finally chasing that goal, consider this your sign. Take one step today. Clarity comes from motion, not from waiting.
