Originally
from St. Louis, Missouri, where I received my Bachelor of Fine
Arts Degree, I worked in the field of Graphic Art, specializing
in the design and development of marketing and publishing
materials for various production and publication companies. I
found myself drawn to the fabulous Florida Keys 12 years ago by
the tropical colors and climate and have gradually melded my
talents and abilities into the field of real estate, in which I
have been working for over 6 of those years. I believe that I
bring to the Marr Team a unique combination of knowledge,
talents and experience.
From my three-year experience as a Legal Assistant to a real
estate attorney, I gained invaluable insight and knowledge
regarding the workings of the legal and technical aspects
involved in real estate, from dealing with the intricate issues
of land use to assisting with closings. With over 20 years of
experience as a graphic designer, I have developed an ability to
grab the viewer’s eye with the product. For the last two years
prior to joining Marr Properties, I served as the Marketing
Director for another real estate company, where I created direct
marketing materials and artwork for Realtors in order to best
present their customers’ properties.
I currently serve on the Advisory Board for the Florida Keys
Council of the Arts and also as a member of the Florida Keys
Artist’s Guild and the Purple Isles Artist’s Guild. I served on
the Board of my own neighborhood association for three years.
Not only have I found the Keys a beautiful place to live, but
this magnificent chain of islands has served as a splendid
backdrop and inspiration for my passion for fine art painting,
the arts in general and the art of tropical living. In my
artwork, I attempt to create a visual transcendence for the
viewer — a place of tropical beauty between the sun and the sea,
where the spirit can rest and rejuvenate itself.
I find that living in the Keys provides a constant series of
opportunities to enjoy and appreciate the wonder of the art of
island, ocean, nature and sun everywhere one turns. I have
learned that there is an art to bringing together the right
property with the right person: the right picture with the right
frame. As a true artist in buying and selling properties in the
Fabulous Florida Keys, I want to be your Realtor for life. Let
me paint you into this picture! |
