About Me

Having lived in 11 cities across six countries, Nicola brings a global perspective and steady approach to her real estate practice. Now firmly rooted in New Canaan—where her four children attend local schools—she combines local knowledge with an international outlook.

Nicola focuses on helping clients navigate significant life transitions involving real estate, particularly divorce. As a Certified Divorce Real Estate Specialist, she guides clients through decisions surrounding the family home, including valuation, buyout scenarios, and the timing of a sale as part of broader financial planning during divorce. Drawing from both professional training and personal experience, she understands the financial and emotional complexity these decisions can carry.

With a background in executive operations and administration, Nicola manages transactions with organization, discretion, and careful attention to detail. She also has a strong interest in architecture and design, helping sellers present their homes in a way that highlights both their practical and aesthetic potential.

Above all, Nicola’s goal is to provide clear guidance and thoughtful support so clients can move forward with confidence into the next chapter of their lives.
