Meet Joanne

In Joanne’s nearly thirty years in Real Estate, she has advised over 1,500 buyers and sellers, representing well over $1 billion in luxury real estate. She has consistently received top accolades and is recognized annually as one of Chicago’s top-producing brokers.

In 1991, Joanne transitioned from corporate attorney to realtor, hoping to pivot her negotiation expertise away from corporations and towards helping individuals and families finding their dream home. Within her first five years, she earned the “Founders’ Award” for selling over $100 million, the youngest recipient ever to do so.

After a successful transition into Real Estate, Joanne has continually challenged herself to keep learning and enhancing relevant skills. She is still a licensed attorney and is also an expert in the investment property space, with extensive experience in leasing, marketing, and management.
