Having made the move from NY to Darien with a young family, Kim is aware of the adjustment families go through in making a big change and she is an expert at helping families find their dream home and then seamlessly transitioning to suburban life.
Prior to joining the AFA Team, Kim was a Vice President in Marketing for Chilton Trust Company in NYC. When she moved to Darien in 2020 with her husband and two children, she renovated her own home and developed a network of local contractors and designers. This sparked her desire to help others to reimagine their homes so that they can be marketed and sold for top dollar.
The combination of Kim’s personal relationships in the community along with the digital marketing strategies she employs make her uniquely qualified to guide her clients through the purchase and sale of their homes. She prides herself on being an attentive and responsive sounding board and consultant for her clients throughout the process.
Kim is aware of the sensitivity of, what is for many, the most important transaction of their lives. She is prepared to do whatever is needed for her clients as they buy and sell what is most often their most valuable asset both emotionally and financially, their home.

Testimonials
“Working with Kim was hands down one of the best experiences. We weren’t your typical clients when looking for our first home. It took us over a year and a half to find our home and Kim was with us every step of the way. Our needs were unique and Kim listened to us and made our experience as smooth as possible. She showed up to every property with a smile and positive outlook. She always made herself available even if it was a last minute request or showing. Then when we finally found our perfect property, she made the closing super seamless. We highly recommend Kim and can’t wait for our next adventure together! Don’t buy a home without talking to Kim first!” ~ Kristen and Drew Tuohy ~
“Kim is the kind of realtor we only dreamed of finding, and we are so thankful the playground gods brought us together! She is so plugged into the local community and network of realtors, and impressed us with her deep research of the neighborhoods and homes that best suited our needs. She took the time to understand our priorities and was strategic in leveraging our unique points of difference so we stood out from the rest in this extraordinarily competitive market. She is a thorough investigator, a fantastic communicator, an absolute pleasure to work and spend time with, (not to mention a locally famous cookie baker), and has become a trusted friend who I often turn to for home and style inspo, local recs, and fellow mom advice. I can attest – Kim is the best of the best, and I cannot recommend her highly enough!” ~ Jillian Fortin ~
“There are no words to express our gratitude for all that you have done to make our dreams a reality. Because of you, our family is getting a much needed fresh start. You managed every step of the way effortlessly and with so much love, expertise and attention to detail. You have literally worn every hat from real estate agent, master negotiator, interior designer, therapist (!), confidant and most importantly, a true friend.” ~ The Lai Family ~
“We found Kim by chance, but I believe it was the real estate gods that brought her to us! She was very intuitive as to what we were looking for and sent suggestions and opinions about potential properties. She made herself readily available to us when we were able to travel to Connecticut. Any time we called or texted her, she was back in touch with us promptly, which we felt was a very important trait in a realtor. Kim was always very positive and eager to help, informative about the communities we were interested In and helped us to think outside of the box a few times! She is excellent at and loves her profession and it shows! We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home in the area.” ~ Betsy and Joe Gazzini ~
