Growing up in the 1950s and being a Baby Boomer has given me a perspective of wonder and gratefulness to be a woman in America today. Despite gray in my hair and some hard-earned wrinkles, at the age of 60 I bring a combination of life experience and a good education to my career in real estate. During my first job, while still in high school, I was fortunate to have savvy mentors who gave me the customer skills I still use today, starting with this: "Always respect the client."

"After months of searching for a home with other realtors, I came to Diana with an air of desperation. She was warm, friendly ... but best of all, she quickly found the perfect home for me and made the transaction smooth, painless and exciting." — Mi chael Burkett, Feb. 2007 (To read more testimonials, click here)
