About me:

My career in property management began back in 2004. Starting as a leasing agent, I worked my way up the corporate ladder to become a Property Manager, working at some of the biggest firms in the DC area, among them: Bozzuto, Kettler, WC Smith and JBG. But as a Property Manager, I realized that my true passion was in leasing. And so, in 2018, I took a job with a startup that was opening its first office in the DC area. As the leader of their DC team, I built solid relationships with both developers and landlords, and was the top producer in the company for two years in a row. Unfortunately, when Covid hit, the company was unable to survive the economic downturn. But I had found my true passion: working directly with landlords to lease their properties. And so, AFK Leasing LLC was born. Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of working with dozens of top landlords in the DC area, helping them market, show and rent their properties quickly and for top dollar. I’d love to have the opportunity to do the same for you.
