Q: Where did you get your work ethic?
A: My grandmother—she was the hardest working person I’ve ever known. I grew up in Soviet Lithuania and there were limited resources available for its citizens. But my family was very well fed because, in addition to a full-time job in a government-owned farm, my grandmother had a sizeable farm of her own. And she needed free labor! So my dad put my sisters and me to work. Most weekends and summers we spent planting, harvesting, weeding, turning hay. I used to be so jealous of my friends playing in the yard, but now I appreciate the work ethic that was instilled in me.
Q: Why are you shifting to working with sellers?
A: At this point in my career, I want to do work that I’m best at. Helping my sellers from the beginning to the end is the most fulfilling and exciting work that I’ve ever done. I love every aspect of the challenge—the emotional support, understanding priorities, figuring out the timeline, pricing, arranging improvements, staging, showcasing, negotiations—all of it. I’m a force and I make it happen!
Q: What keeps you going after 22 years of being a Realtor?
A: I’m a pure servant at heart and I love helping people through their real estate transitions. It’s a process filled with stress, uncertainty and an overwhelming to-do list. With warmth, expertise and hands-on help, we get through it together, one step at a time. That’s where I find my meaning.
