Her background as an attorney enables her to assist clients in a unique way throughout the process of negotiating the purchase or sale of property in New York.

She represented the owners of The Duke-Semans Mansion, the prestigious Beaux-Arts masterpiece on Fifth Avenue. This landmark property sold for $40 million in 2006 and resold in 2010 for $44 million and was featured on the front page of The New York Times, Fortune.com, CNN, Haute Living, International Herald Tribune and a variety of other international publications.
