Random facts about me:

I was proudly born and raised in NYC. I grew up in the village when it was a bohemian treasure trove of unconventionality. I later went to boarding school in Massachusetts - hence the subtle accent most people can’t place!

My mom was a successful fashion designer (still so proud of her), and it inspired me to follow her path. She taught me how to sketch and how to discern good design, which influenced my love for fashion, interior design, and architecture.

I moved to Europe and lived there for about 6 years- Paris, Milan, and London. I picked up Italian while in Italy, and while I loved living there, Paris is my first, lasting love. I was so enamored with the city I would walk for miles rather than take the metro. During one of my walks, a fashion photographer discovered me and encouraged me to model, which I did for a few years.

Back in NYC, I studied Wing Chun kung fu and received my green belt! Kung fu was surprisingly meditative and improved my confidence. I became so enthralled in it that just by my vibe, other martial artists could tell I was a student of kung fu, which was prob one of my proudest accomplishments!

While in NYC, I eventually found real estate and loved the freedom and limitless possibilities it provided. But when the market crashed in 2008, I sold my apartment and moved to LA in 2010. Surprising myself and all of my friends, I fell IN LOVE with LA. I love the juxtaposition of grit and beauty here….and the weather too ;)

Acting had become a passion of mine over the years and led to meeting my too-good-to-be-true husband in LA, who owns an acting studio in Hollywood.

It’s a blessing to be still doing real estate in a city that has become my favorite, and after 11 years of still doing it, I’m still so excited for more!

Oh, and I sing and do ballet too! 😜 taken in Los Angeles, California by @urbane_la

This Silver Lake apartment has the kind of details I love: barrel ceilings, original hardwood floors, and terracotta tile in the kitchen.

It’s an upper one-bedroom in a gated 1930s Craftsman, set back from the street and close to the Reservoir.

For Lease!
1064 S Genesee Ave
Los Angeles
3 Bed/2 Bath
$5500/Mo.

Step through the door and into a world that feels quietly apart from time, a home where every detail is considered, every shadow and flicker of light deliberately placed. Sunlight pours in through an abundance of windows, casting shifting patterns across freshly painted walls, illuminating the elegance in every corner. Wall sconces glow softly in the evenings, their light catching on the burnished wood and the built -in cabinetry, each shelf a stage for the objects you treasure.

The living room, vast and inviting, centers around a working fireplace, a place to gather, to read, to sit in the hush of a winter evening as the flames crackle low. Beyond, a kitchen of thoughtful design awaits, where the clean gleam of stainless steel meets generous cabinetry, offering space for all you need, while a sleek dishwasher stands ready to make life a little easier.

In the bathrooms, serenity reigns. Lights flicker on at your presence, as if anticipating your arrival. Deep, spa-like soaking tubs invite you to disappear into their warmth, to linger in the hush of your own quiet retreat. And when the seasons shift, central air ensures that no matter the weather outside, within these walls, comfort reigns.

Throughout the home, a sense of timelessness settles like a sigh—elegant, enveloping. A sanctuary, not just in name but in feeling. A place to pause, to savor. A home that is, in every sense, a life well lived.

Tucked into the heart of Wilshire Vista, this home offers an enviable location where the city unfolds in every direction. A three-minute drive takes you to the warm hum of Paper or Plastik Cafe, where espresso steam curls into sunlit air. Just five minutes away, The Original Farmers Market and The Grove —bustling with flavor, rhythm, and some of the best shopping in the city. Ten minutes by car, and you’re in Beverly Hills or West Hollywood, where storied streets give way to world-class dining, boutiques, and cultural landmarks. And with quick access to major freeways, the best of Los Angeles—its energy, its quiet corners, its endless possibilities—is never far from reach. taken in Miracle Mile, Los Angeles by @urbane_la

Stately, with spacious rooms, high ceilings and light streaming in from so many windows.

For Lease!
8323 Blackburn Ave
Los Angeles
2 Bed/ 2 Bath
$3695/Mo.

Set back and just high enough to feel above the fray, this 1930s upper unit is all ease. Think: original hardwood floors that have seen stories unfold, barrel ceilings that know how to hold a little drama, and windows—so many windows—that pull in the kind of golden-hour light that flatters everyone, even your houseplants.

The living room sets the tone—airy, elegant, and just theatrical enough to make your morning coffee feel like an entrance.

The kitchen is grounded in terra cotta tile and deep wood cabinetry with the kind of character you just can’t fake. Long tiled counters offer ample space for your Le Creuset or your Postmates, depending on the mood and the week you’ve had.

The bedroom is sweet, sunlit, and wrapped in charm, with closets that seem to multiply and a softness that invites sleep, dreaming, or at the very least, some excellent texting. The bath keeps it vintage—subway tile, pedestal sink, and light that understands the assignment.

Set in a classic Craftsman triplex with gated entry and a sense of calm that’s getting harder to find, this apartment offers more than just good bones. It offers good timing. Because right outside your door? The Silver Lake Reservoir. Maru matcha. Sunset Junction strolls. Spontaneous bookstore detours. And that feeling that maybe, just maybe, you’re right where you’re supposed to be.

For Lease!
319 N Heliotrope Dr 1
Los Angeles
2 Bed/ 1 Bath
$2475/Mo.

Renovated 2 Bed / 1 Bath – Large Private Patio – Private Laundry – 2 Gated Parking Spots – Close to Metro

Set back from the street, this triplex is home to a renovated 2 Bed / 1 Bath lower unit with wide windows, good natural light, and laminate floors.

The kitchen has quartz countertops, a stainless farmhouse sink, stainless dishwasher, refrigerator, and gas stove. Both bedrooms are a good size, and there are two AC units.

Out back, the large private patio is actually large — enough room for a dining table, lounge furniture, plants, or whatever version of outdoor living you have in mind.

You also get your own private laundry room with washer/dryer and **two gated parking spaces**. In LA, that last part deserves its own sentence.

Close to Koreatown, Los Feliz, Silver Lake, and Echo Park, with restaurants, coffee shops, and the Metro nearby.

For Lease
836 Silverlake Blvd
1 Bed/1 Bath
$2650/Mo.

Set back and just high enough to feel above the fray, this 1930s upper is doing a lot of things right.

Original hardwood floors. Barrel ceilings with a little drama. Windows everywhere, pulling in the kind of golden-hour light that flatters everyone, including your houseplants.

The kitchen keeps its character with terra cotta tile, deep wood cabinetry, and long tiled counters with room for the Le Creuset or the Postmates. No judgment.

The bedroom is sunny and soft, with closets that seem to multiply. The bath stays properly vintage with subway tile, a pedestal sink, and very good light.

All tucked inside a classic Craftsman triplex with gated entry, just moments from the Silver Lake Reservoir, Maru, Sunset Junction, bookstore detours, and the particular pleasure of being able to walk somewhere you actually want to go.

1930s charm, excellent light, and Silver Lake right outside the door. That’ll do nicely. taken in Silverlake, Los Angeles by @urbane_la

There is an unfurnished 1 bed / 1 bath available in prime Palm Desert.

Recently updated with an in-unit washer/dryer, an updated kitchen, and your own private patio. When it’s time to cool off, the well-maintained building offers a sparkling pool that feels very much the point of being here. ☀️

At $1,575 per month, this apartment makes a compelling case for a weekend desert escape — close enough to LA, far enough to exhale.
