Before joining Compass, Elana spent over 15 years in marketing and analytics, beginning in the fashion industry and moving to the co-brand partnership space for large financial institutions. Her love for relationship building seamlessly translates into her passion for helping clients find their dream home. She practices honesty and transparency through all encounters, enabling her to form lasting relationships with clients. Client satisfaction is her top priority at all times. After graduating Boston University with majors in psychology and in statistics, Elana lived in Manhattan for 15 years. She recently returned to her Westchester roots where she grew up and currently lives in Scarsdale with her husband and two small children. Having grown up in Westchester, being married to a registered architect, and recently going through a home renovation of her own, Elana has an established network of craftsmen and home maintenance contacts that help make home buying and potential renovations a seamless experience. Her strong marketing background allows her to leverage various channels to create the best strategy to market a client’s property. Elana follows online and social media trends which, combined with her statistics background, allows her to help clients make well-informed decisions. Elana’s passion for helping others extends to volunteer and community work. While living in Manhattan, she led several community volunteer events and is currently involved in food allergy advocacy and awareness. She has a love for discovering local restaurants that can safely prepare food for those with food allergies, which helps both local restaurants and the food allergy community. Elana understands that buying or selling a home may take time or it may happen quickly but, either way, she strives to make the experience a fun one. Elana is a member of the Hudson Gateway Association of Realtors and the National Association of Realtors.
