Meet Cecilia

I am a native of Colombia, South America. Since 1986 I have lived in the United States, in the states of Alabama and Florida.

For most of my professional life, I have worked as a high school and college professor, teaching Spanish to thousands of students. During my educational career I was very lucky to work with wonderful students and colleagues with whom I still have a relationship. My teaching career extended for 25 years, and during that time I received my Masters Degree in Education and Spanish language, a National Board Certification, and several other distinctions and awards.

Two years ago, I started thinking on a career change. Real estate was something of interest to me, and thought a good fit for my personality. I love meeting and helping people, I am a good listener, a detail oriented person, very determined, organized, and hardworking. With the help and encouragement of my husband Ray, an already successful real estate agent in St. Augustine I went for my real estate license. Real estate is my second career, but my educational and real estate goals remain the same: I like to make a positive difference in peoples’ lives, by educating them throughout the buying and selling process, so they can achieve their goals and thus making the transaction as smooth and well-informed as possible.

When I am not working as a real estate agent I love to relax and spend time with my family, read, listen to music, cooking and eating, going to the movies, and traveling.

Soy original de Colombia, Sur America. En 1986 me mude a los Estados Unidos y desde entonces he vivido en los estados de Alabama y Florida.

Durante la mayor parte de mi vida profesional he trabajado como profesora de español en escuelas secundarias y universidades. Me siento muy afortunada de haber tenido la oportunidad de trabajar con estudiantes y colegas maravillosos. Aun mantengo una relación y comunicación con muchos de ellos. Mi carrera educacional se extendió por 25 anos y durante este tiempo complete y recibi mi maestria en educación, mi certificación como maestra nacional y obtuve muchos otros premios y distinciones.

Hace aproximadamente 2 anos, empece a pensar y a investigar la posibilidad de un cambio de carrera. La idea de trabajar como una agente de bienes raíces era interesante para mi y se ajustaba a mi personalidad. Me encanta conocer y ayudar a la gente, soy muy trabajadora, presto mucha atención a detalles, escucho cuidadosamente lo que otros dicen, soy persistente y organizada. Con la ayuda de mi esposo Ray quien ya es y trabaja como un exitoso agente de bienes raíces en St. Augustine, decidi obtener mi licencia. Como pueden ver, bienes raíces es mi segunda carrera pero mis objetivos tanto en educación como en bienes raíces son los mismos, a través de la educación quiero asegurar que mis clientes logren sus objetivos: una trasaccion exitosa y sin sorpresas desagradables y un nuevo hogar donde sus familias puedan crecer y ser feliz.

Cuando no estoy trabajando como agente de bienes raíces me gusta relajarme y pasar el tiempo con mi familia, leer, escuchar música, cocinar, comer, ir al cine y viajar.
