I have been a licensed real estate agent since 1972. Prior to moving to the District of Columbia in 1989, I was the Vice President and Sales Manager of Ruby Braswell Realty in Rocky Mount, NC and the President of Gossett and Company, Inc. and Gossett-Abee, Inc. in Raleigh, NC, both development and investment real estate firms. In 1989 I became an Associate Broker with Pardoe & Graham Real Estate in Washington, D.C. and then, in 1999 joined Washington Fine Properties as an Associate Broker.
