Janet’s love of real estate developed from the ground up. As the daughter of a contractor, Janet would accompany her dad as he walked through the homes he was renovating. He would explain his vision for the renovation and explain why he would remove a wall or other details to improve the flow of the home and the way the spaces worked. She could see firsthand how plans and specs translated into tangible spaces. These experiences laid the foundation for her to appreciate the uniqueness of every home along with seeing that each home always had potential for change. The time spent with her father in these homes taught her the value of commitment, collaboration and entrepreneurial spirit.
Janet took that spirit with her to Boston and obtained degrees in Marketing and Management from Northeastern University. As Janet worked as a bartender to put herself through college, she developed a love for the fast-pace of the hospitality industry. After graduation, she spent many years in the field of restaurant management. This high pressure, fast-moving environment, coupled with the client interface provided her with valuable skills that she now uses daily in real estate with negotiations, marketing and communication.
She moved to the CT Shoreline at the beginning of 2002 and shortly thereafter decided to pursue her passion of real estate. Janet became a Realtor in 2003 and quickly established a reputation for savvy negotiations, an uncompromising work ethic, integrity and outstanding service to both sellers and buyers. As a woman immersed in and passionate about her community, Janet prides herself on her extensive knowledge of the Shoreline’s neighborhoods, market conditions and property values allowing her to position her client’s home effectively from day one on the market. Using the global resources of Sotheby’s International Realty, Janet will make your listing available to an enormous network of buyers throughout the world.

Having completed her first marathon in 2018, Janet is equipped to go the distance on any project. A Guilford resident, Janet is an enthusiastic member of the community who enjoys spending time with her family, hiking with her dogs, fitness, friends and her ongoing discoveries of all the Shoreline and Connecticut has to offer!
