My keen insight into the industry offers clients in-depth knowledge on community information, school district performance and changing trends in the housing market.

Worldwide Experience & Network


Debbie’s experience reaches beyond Downtown Chicago and Montana with key contacts in all the premier Ski, Sea and Sun destinations throughout the United States and across the globe.  I also have an extensive international real estate background that includes having had my own International Real Estate Brokerage representing developments throughout Latin America,  NAR President’s Liaison to Costa Rica, President of the FIABCI -International Real Estate Federation and Past Chair of the Chicago Association of Realtor’s International Council. This international expertise gives me the capability to network with agents around the globe. I have assisted clients with the sales of homes from Switzerland and St. John to Costa Rica and Panama. 


Personal Strength and Giving Back


My personal dedication to fitness contributes to my high energy focus and the strength to power through challenges in the real estate business. A partner in a HIIT gym, a past competitor in triathlons and 4 Time Ironman Finisher.  I have participated in the Chicago Real Estate Rumble boxing match which raises funds for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Chicago. I am devoted to giving back to my community through World Vision, Girls On the Run and have acted as President and Director of Shelter and Rescue Relations for Realtors to the Rescue which helps support Chicago area pet shelters and rescue centers. Under Debbie’s leadership, the organization increased their fundraising results six-fold. Prior to that, I was president of The Fairy Godmother Foundation granting wishes to terminally ill adults.
