NYS Lic. Associate Real Estate Broker
Lead Agent
It takes experience, market insight, and steady guidance to navigate today’s evolving real estate landscape—and that’s exactly what I bring to every client relationship. While real estate is my profession, helping people is truly my passion. Known for my strategic negotiation skills, elevated client service, and results-driven approach, I have consistently ranked among Ithaca’s top-producing agents year after year. I lead a high-performing team at Warren Real Estate, with a proven track record of success—in 2025, I was once again recognized as a Top Producing Agent with over $30 million in individual sales, and led a Top Producing Team with over $54 million in total sales. In 2024 $62M in combined team production, then 2023 $30M, $31M in 2022, over $40M in 2021, 2020 exceeding $22M in sales. My clients benefit from a level of energy, attention to detail, and market expertise that ensures every transaction is handled with precision from start to finish. My average sale price and list-to-sale ratios consistently outperform local and company averages, reflecting a commitment to maximizing value for my clients.
Having lived in Ithaca for over 37 years, I offer deep local knowledge and a genuine appreciation for the lifestyle this region provides. From Cornell University and Ithaca College to the Finger Lakes’ natural beauty, vibrant culture, and strong sense of community, I take pride in helping buyers and sellers connect with everything that makes this area exceptional.
My community involvement has been a cornerstone of both my personal and professional life. I have served on the Board of Directors for Challenge Workforce Solutions, the Cayuga Medical Center Hospital Gala Committee, the Ithaca Urban Renewal Agency, and the City’s Economic Development Committee, Community Foundation for Tompkins County, the Women’s Fund. On our local MLS Board I have served on both the MLS and Grievance Committees for the Ithaca Board of Realtors®. These connections provide my clients with an invaluable network of local resources and insight.
On a personal note, Ithaca has been home for my family as well. My two sons both attended Ithaca City Schools. My oldest son, Garrett Venuto joined my team in real estate and is one of the top agents at Warren.
Whether you’re searching for a primary residence, a luxury estate, a lakeside retreat, or an investment opportunity, I bring the experience, professionalism, and local expertise to guide you every step of the way.
