The team’s passion, efficiency, and collaborative spirit inspire excellence and integrity in every transaction, and Annie is honored to contribute to its continued success.
Originally from Guam, Annie spent most of her adult life in Illinois before making the beautiful move to Florida. Her journey has been far from conventional. Once a single mother working two jobs while pursuing her education, she advanced from secretary to Professor of Computer Science. This path instilled in her the understanding that success demands more than hard work—it requires drive, clear goals, and a strategic plan.
Following her retirement from academia, Annie embraced the adventurous role of flight attendant, a chapter filled with rich experiences and lasting relationships. Eventually, she was drawn to real estate, a profession that perfectly blends her passions for education, service, and community engagement.
Annie believes that knowledge is power and is deeply committed to lifelong learning. She has completed numerous real estate courses on prospecting, marketing, contracts, negotiations, pricing strategies, ethics, and more—often taking them multiple times to stay ahead in an ever-evolving industry. This dedication ensures her clients receive the most informed and up-to-date guidance.
She understands that buying or selling a home is among life’s most significant decisions. Annie is dedicated to guiding her clients every step of the way, prioritizing transparency, trust, and open communication. Backed by the robust tools and support of John R. Wood Christie’s International Real Estate, she delivers a truly elevated real estate experience.
