Joanna's focus is on achieving her client's objectives. Having left a career on Wall Street as one of the few women to have been a member of the New York Stock Exchange, she excels in and is accustomed to working in a fast paced environment. Her handling of multi-million dollar orders was always directly related to her expertise in negotiating the best prices for her customers. Whether in a buy or sell situation, Joanna's level of professionalism, organizational skills, and detail-oriented nature are the tools that set her apart and help her provide a positive client experience, every time. She has consistently been named a member of the prestigious Producer’s Council, making her one of the top 5% producers companywide (Halstead Real Estate).
Joanna's passion for real estate began with the purchase of her first home. Being a native New Yorker, an early aspiration was to own a home in Manhattan. That dream has become a reality and also her mission for her clients. Fast forward to the present, she has bought, renovated, combined, and sold numerous properties working very closely with architects, contractors, and building managers. She knows and understands the process well and will enthusiastically assist you and share her experiences with you.
Joanna has been a resident of the Upper West Side for many years and particularly loves Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the unexpected surprises you encounter daily just walking down the streets—whether it be a street fair, new restaurant, or old friend. She currently serves as Vice President on the board and is the Resident Building Specialist for The Boulevard which is where she calls home and paradise. Joanna is also the Building Specialist for one of Brown Harris Stevens’ managed properties: the Ariel East Condominiums located on the Upper West Side. She continues to study and be fascinated by the evolving market, making her the ultimate source of knowledge and guidance for her buyers and sellers.
