A calligrapher for 20+ years, she was a freelance designer and had several of her projects published in Home Decorating magazines and publications. Ann also enjoys other creative aspects such as embroidering and vinyl arts.
"I serve my clients from my heart, the way I would assist my own mother in a real estate transaction. The pleasure is all mine as I have the opportunity to serve each person and family who buys and/or sells their properties with my assistance. I feel that I am so blessed with the wonderful relationships that I have developed over the years. I am so thankful for all the many loyal clients that I have the pleasure of knowing and serving."
