    As an accomplished Creative Director, Carol observed the world through creative eyes, sensing nuances and appreciating both art and business. Hers was a position requiring intuition, tenacity, negotiation, and communication skills as she worked with a diverse, high-proile client base.Today, as a real estate professional, she’s bringing those same skills and talents to an equally broad spectrum of discriminating clients.Carol grew up in Queens and Manhasset, NY, but always yearned to live in New York City. She accomplished that by attaining a full scholarship to The Cooper Union in NYC where she studied graphic design and architecture. Then moved on to a successful career in advertising, working for some of the nest brands in the US.Carol is happily married and in their spare time she and her husband completely renovated and expanded a circa 1820 Georgian Colonial home in Redding, CT. They not only executed the designs, but personally accomplished much of carpentry, electrical, plumbing and more.This experience has given Carol a broad knowledge of not only the esthetics of beautiful home but a deep understanding of the complexities.Carol is a listener, an able advisor and erce yet fair advocate, for both sellers and buyers.
