About Coco

Coco's sales career began at the Four Seasons Hotel Chicago, where she honed strong communication and negotiating skills working with clients as diverse as her markets — from managing corporate travel programs for major financial institutions to coordinating a long-term stay for a celebrity filming in Chicago. Multitasking and meeting everyone's needs became second nature.

Raised in a real estate family and married to John, whose family owned a successful wholesale furniture business, it's no surprise that all conversation eventually leads to talk of the home. After spending 12 years working alongside her husband in his showroom at Chicago's Merchandise Mart, the transition into real estate was natural. Whether working with homeowners or buyers, Coco's clients can count on her to listen, deliver an unparalleled level of service, and bring a creative eye that helps buyers visualize how to turn a house into a home — and helps sellers better position theirs for sale.

Coco approaches each situation with honesty, integrity, and a sense of humor. She offers deep market knowledge, staging assistance, one-of-a-kind marketing, and strong negotiation skills. Buying and selling a home shouldn't be intimidating — she works hard to make it a fun experience too.

A Chicagoland resident since 1995, Coco settled in Wilmette in 2002 because it reminded her of her Connecticut roots. She's been deeply involved in the community ever since — from chairing the parent board at her children's nursery school to serving on the Board of Directors for the New Trier Booster Club. When she's not working, you'll find her walking her dog Kingston along Sheridan Road, reading at Gillson Beach, in a yoga class, or traveling with her husband and two sons.
