After having her two sons, Diana earned her teaching certification. During her tenure as a high school teacher, she served as activities director, coached softball, sponsored clubs and co-directed the Miss Fletcher Scholarship Pageant. Diana also served as the marketing director for the Public Trust Environmental Legal Institute, a non-profit environmental organization. As a health and fitness enthusiast, Diana has created and lead, group and individual fitness programs. Her experience as a former educator, trainer and coach, combined with her marketing creativity, technological savvy and high energy, will help guide clients through the buying and selling process. Realizing each experience is unique and understanding the magnitude of your investment, she will strive to match your lifestyle and interests with a home that will serve you well.
Real estate is in her blood. While growing up in Ohio, her parents built and sold several custom homes. “I loved going to the job site throughout all phases of building and enjoyed helping select materials and finishing touches for each project. Since then, I have bought, sold, built and renovated homes and have thoroughly enjoyed the process.”
Diana spends her free time with friends, at a dance or fitness class, bicycling, walking the beach with her dog Romeo, gardening and pursuing her passion for photography.
