Distinctions

I am small framed, but mighty in dedication to service and integrity throughout each transaction! I’ve been in the business over 21 years, offering a unique perspective and diverse skillets, having migrated many years ago from my homeland, Albania, 12 miles from the border of Greece. Consequently, I am fluent in three languages; Greek  and Albanian, in addition to a fully-integrated command of the English language.

My Bachelor's Degree in Education afforded an earlier career teaching high school. Then, I met and married my husband, Mark, and embarked a new life in United States. San Francisco was my first American homeplace. It was a job transfer that brought us to our beautiful mountains of Asheville, North Carolina. Upon arriving here in 1995, I truly felt at home. The topography of the land and the beautiful mountains in Western North Carolina are very much like in my original homeland. Additionally, I enjoyed the melting pot atmosphere, that Asheville has become with great appreciation for the diversity here. I miss the days of playing soccer with my two, now adult children.  They are making their own ways in the world, but there is nothing like home - Asheville!

So, from teacher, to wife, to mother, to REALTOR! It was the love of the land and my passion  for sharing that led me into Real Estate in 2003. 21 years of experiencing in  the industry and my diverse background add extra flavor to the interaction with clients I work with. My personal journey is an instant connection with those thinking of a move to our area.
