If you're into boating, sailing or fishing, you've come to the right person to find a home on Anna Maria island.

My specialty is homes and condos along our many protected waters, canals and the bayfront. With more than 22 years on the island, and more than 40 years of boating experience, I know the waters of Tampa Bay, the Gulf of Mexico, Anna Maria Sound and Sarasota Bay.

As a Realtor (with my Island Real Estate partner Christine T. Shaw), we offer more than 20 years of actively helping buyers and sellers reach their goals. We've closed more than 135 sales of homes, condos, homesites and multi-family dwellings.

As a former publicist for Sarasota County and marketing director for the Arts Council, I can help you have fun off the water too, with info on schools, restaurants, shopping, entertainment and education from Tampa Bay to Venice.

I'll share my 'local knowledge' with you so that you can find out virtually anything you need by calling. And if I don't know the answer right off-hand, I'll be happy to find out for you.

Call for help most any time; I'm always available through the office during regular business hours on Monday through Saturday at 1-877-778-6066. After hours my cell phone is 941-685-8822.
