About Marie

I am honored to be able to introduce myself. I have lived in Lake Bluff my whole life. I went to St. Mary’s grade school and Lake Forest High School. During this time I have amassed many friends and a long list of who to call when something breaks, so much so, I have the reputation for “ask Marie she’ll know someone”! I love village life in Lake Bluff and our small-town celebrations, Halloween in particular. Lake Bluff really knows how to do Halloween.

Ten years ago I started a Halloween Costume drive for children in need and to date have collected and donated over 8000 costumes to schools and organizations in the North Chicago/ Waukegan areas. I’m passionate about my family; I have two daughters, Jennifer who lives in Chicago with her husband Joe, and Ashlee, who lives in Lake Bluff with her husband JP. I enjoy antiquing with my friends and baking. I bake every day sometimes late into the night. I get great pleasure in treating my friends and passionately believe life is just better with chocolate!

★★★★★
"We Loved Marie! She is a local so knows so much about the area! She never made us feel rushed or silly. She gave us her full undivided attention. She was quick to respond and worked on our schedule. I would highly recommend Marie, specially if you are looking in the Lake Bluff/Lake Forest area"

★★★★★
"I feel so lucky and grateful to have had the chance to work with Marie. As a buyer, I could not have had a more professional representative and advocate. She is completely buttoned up on every detail, answered all my questions and worked with all parties for a smooth transaction. Unfortunately, the seller's attorney was not so professional and made lots of mistakes. Even though it was not Marie's job to solve the problems of his own making, Marie went WAY above and beyond to get to a successful resolution, even dedicating lots of time post-close to make sure all matters were settled properly -- with all i's dotted. Without hesitation, I recommend Marie as a buyer's and seller's agent for her professionalism and knowledge as well as for the fact that she simply cares deeply about her clients' peace of mind." - Karen
