From the moment I arrived in Northampton, I knew the city would become my home. I’ve now lived here for 30 years and can understand why 19th-century opera singer Jenny Lind called Northampton “the paradise of America.” The city offers that rare combination: the beauty of the countryside and the excitement of urban life.
I’ve worked as a realtor for nearly 20 years and love to assist other people making a move to this unique area. While I’m based in Northampton, I will travel to the farthest reaches of the Pioneer Valley to help you buy or sell your home.
As both a seller’s agent and a buyer’s agent, I’ve built my reputation on giving my clients honest and informed advice. I strive to make every transaction as stress-free as possible and work to protect my clients’ best interests. My market knowledge, transparency and insights enable me to produce favorable outcomes for all of my clients.
As a seller’s agent, I will give your home the attention it deserves. I will meet with you to discuss current market conditions and develop a marketing strategy that includes extensive online advertising exposure for your house. Your carefully prepared marketing package will feature professional still photos, drone photography and a detailed property description. Floor plans and video can also be incorporated. If needed, I will assist you with staging your home with the furniture and items you already own. I strive to be an expert communicator and will show your property with enthusiasm.
As a buyer’s agent, I provide personal and immediate attention and service. I’m patient and will never rush you into making important decisions. I’m dedicated to helping you navigate this competitive market and will work as your advocate until you find the right property. I’m a tough negotiator during the offer-and-inspection period and will stay in close contact with you throughout the home-seeking process.
I’m certified as a Massachusetts Associate Broker and have received the President’s Platinum Award from the Realtor Association of the Pioneer Valley in recognition of superior sales and service. In 2022, the Realtor Association of the Pioneer Valley ranked me as one of the top-10 realtors for sales.
About me: Prior to joining Delap Real Estate in 2017, I was the top-selling agent at the Coldwell Banker office in Northampton from 2005–2017.
I received my B.A. from Colgate University and my M.A. from Columbia University, where I received the Fellows in Teaching Award. Prior to becoming a realtor, I worked for 10 years as a public-school music teacher in Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York at both the elementary and secondary levels. I maintain a strong interest in education and the arts and am involved in various musical endeavors.
I look forward to meeting with you. I’m easily accessible via phone, email and text and will respond to your requests within 24 hours.
