Amie grew up in Chicagoland before moving away to earn a degree with honors in politics from Princeton University, where she also played Division I softball and club rugby. Upon returning home, Amie earned her master’s degree in integrated marketing from Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism.
Previous to becoming a licensed broker, Amie worked at the Chicago Tribune where she managed marketing efforts for the Tribune’s multi-million real estate advertising division. This experience cultivated her knowledge of the Chicago market and proved a natural fit for her 2005 entry into the transactional side of the industry.
Amie wholeheartedly dedicates herself to each and every buyer and seller. Thanks to ongoing referrals from satisfied clients, Amie consistently garners the yearly ‘Top Producer’ sales award by the Chicago Association of Realtors; a distinct honor earned by only the top 10% of local agents. Amie’s sales record highlights that providing resourceful and data-driven insights, creative solutions, and exemplary service yields exceptionally satisfied clients—the true measure of success.
Amie draws inspiration from the city’s rich history and diverse/vibrant neighborhoods. Her intimate knowledge of Chicago and the North Side comes from living, working and spending time studying a variety of neighborhoods including Downtown, Lakeview, Lincoln Park, Ravenswood, Lincoln Square and especially Andersonville/Edgewater —where she currently resides and where she and her SwakeGroup team have achieved + million in career sales.
Outside of work, Amie owns and produces large LGBTQ community events. She received the distinguished Community Service Award from Human Rights Campaign in 2017. As an advocate for girls in under-served Chicagoland communities Amie served over 15 years on the Board of Directors at Girls in the Game—a non profit that creates opportunities for girls to develop their voice, confidence and leadership skill sets. In 2020, Amie was selected and is honored to currently serve on Dream Town’s Diversity Council.
