Inveniam viam avt faciam - I will find a way or make one. My high school (Holton-Arms) motto has become a way of life for me. After relocating to Providence from the Maryland/DC area in 2008, I fell in love with Rhode Island. Our beaches, our cities and towns, our wildlife, our artists and athletes, and our incredible cuisine - the smallest state really has an embarrassment of riches. My clients trust me to advise them not only in real estate, but also in local resources and entertainment. Since transitioning from the field of Education to Real Estate, I have earned the REALTORS(R) Commitment to Excellence endorsement, certification as both a Pricing Strategy Advisor and an Accredited Buyers' Representative, and the Circle of Excellence Silver and Bronze Sales Awards. I am very proud that 100% of my clients have given me 5-star reviews, whether buyers or sellers. My ultimate goal is to delight my clients! With an undergraduate degree in Anthropology & Fine Arts (with a concentration in Contemporary African Art) from Amherst College and a master's in education from the University of Maryland, my personal interests are varied. I enjoy reading, hiking, weightlifting, concerts, travel, photography, and birding. I also boast an impressive shoe collection. I live on the East Side of Providence with my husband Terry, our dog Fergus (half Golden Retriever, half Bernese Mountain Dog), and our rescue cat Cosette. We have grown children who live in Boston and Denver. Being active in the community is important to me; I serve on the Development Committee for the RI Center for the Book, the Board of JCDSRI (Jewish Day School of RI), and the Board of the Community Libraries of Providence. I am also a Certified Wildlife Transporter for the Wildlife Rehabilitators' Association of RI. In addition, I hold alumni leadership roles at both of my alma maters, Holton-Arms and Amherst College.

Lauri helped us find a home after we relocated to Rhode Island. She really knows all the neighborhoods in Providence and beyond. It was a bit overwhelming to find the right place on our budget (and in a hot market) but she did it. We are so grateful for Lauri and her expertise. She’s a pleasure to work with, and we are very happy that we found such a charming home in a quaint walkable neighborhood.
We used Lauri for both the sale and purchase of our new home and she went above and beyond!! Lauri helped us and advised us with everything from recommendations to get our house ready to sell to helping get all the appropriate inspections for the new house. We can’t recommend Lauri enough, she really personalizes your experience to meet all of your specific needs. Thank you Lauri!
Lauri is fabulous! It was my first time renting my condo, and she was flexible, resourceful and very responsive to all the questions that I had. She found me a really great tenant who I'm excited to have rent my space and has walked me through the entire process seamlessly and with no stress. It's been a pleasure to work with her- Thanks Lauri!
We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Lauri as our realtor. We were first time home buyers and we came on with a lot of questions and very little knowledge. From our very first meeting, Lauri demonstrated she always comes prepared, would listen to our needs, and help us feel confident through every step of the process. Lauri has extensive knowledge of Rhode Island neighborhoods and helped identify locations that met our interest and needs. She introduced us to new neighborhoods we hadn’t considered but ended up loving. We were sent listings daily that met our qualifications, but Lauri always made sure to follow up on ones she thought we would be excited about (and she was right!). She also has an a wide network of people she connected us with to help with our mortgage, inspection, and any other needs. She gave us several referrals so we could find someone who was a good fit for us. Lauri is very responsive to questions and went with us on almost every showing. She helped us see houses for their potential but also their current value, a skill new buyers often struggle with. When it came to putting in offers, she gave us realistic information, supported and empowered our decision making, and ultimately helped us close on a perfect house in an amazing neighborhood. I recommend Lauri to all of my friends because she is the best out there!!!
