Every time I had to organize an event for the international corporation I was working at, it felt like fresh water for my soul. I was so good at it that I ended up planning events, like weddings, banquets and quinceaneros, for my colleagues and their friends as a side job.

Born and raised in a paradise island of the Caribbean, Dominican Republic.

When I was a child, I remember wanting to be a flight attendant, I was fascinated with their fancy look; then, while in high school, I studied to be an executive assistant, and I felt in love with that profession.

I step back from the situation, keep quiet and listen to the universe.

Florence Scovel Shinn; there is so much enlightenment on her work, and I figure that she was a very approachable person with a great willingness of sharing her wisdom to anybody who would have listened.

The fact that this is such a broad industry that, as an agent, you have so many chances to deliver solutions to people on different stages of their lives. That is rewarding!

Having to deal with a non-cooperative party; sometimes it is the client, sometimes it is a professional they have retained.

Keep in touch with your clients, they will be your best source for referrals after a memorable experience of your service.

There are so many impressive mansions all over South Florida, both old and new construction, that it will be unfair to choose just one.

One of many, LOL! I had a showing appointment confirmed on Showtime for a just posted listing on the MLS, before the next day open house; I went with my buyers and as a standard, I left my business card on the kitchen counter when leaving the premises. A couple of hours later I got a call from a very upset listing agent asking me if I’ve been inside the house? I said yes. Apparently, he had no authorization from the owner to show the property that day and therefore he was going to lose the listing. I had to call his client to explain that the app was allowing showings for that day and had to convince her that this misunderstanding was not the Realtor’s negligence but because of a “glitch” on the Showtime system. She was fine after that.

That my English communication skills were very limited when I permanently relocated to the U.S. back in 2012, but my passion for reading has helped me to greatly enrich my vocabulary, and my children and my husband have helped me to improve it’s pronunciation.

My husband and I have been accomplishing our goal to visit all NFL stadiums whenever the home team is playing. It is so much fun!
