Focusing on properties in and around Sarasota and its barrier islands, Elizabeth enriches the real estate experience with her passion for the area. She enthuses: “You can hike a jungle trail in Myakka Park, and don a tuxedo to attend an opera gala the same day. You can play 18 holes of PGA golf and catch a theater performance that very evening. You can participate in poetry writing and painting; attend academic lectures, or cheer on the Baltimore Orioles. You can refine your French at classes with the Alliance Francaise de Sarasota, before attending a brown bag jazz concert – all in the same day.”

Elizabeth is a fifth generation fine artist who is immersed in the cultural community. She has been an arts and education advocate serving on numerous boards, creating venues supporting creative arts professionals, and currently serves on the Public Art Committee for the City of Sarasota. In her free time she enjoys cooking, painting, growing orchids and most of all spending relaxed evenings on the beach with family and friends.
