DORA Dernavich
Company: Coldwell Banker Hickok & Boardman Realty
Title: Realtor
Age: 32
Favorite Part of Job: I love meeting new people every day, and having each day bring a diverse set of challenges and achievements. The flexible schedule is nice too!
Favorite Downtime Activity: Snuggling with my dog (and husband!) on a cool winter evening.
Favorite Social Media: Love/hate relationship with Facebook. Otherwise Instagram is great for all the beautiful photos!
What is the best career advice you have received: Be yourself and sincere, it will show and pay off.
Where do you see yourself professionally in ten years: Still in Real Estate, perhaps with a team of agents working for me!
What else would you like to accomplish in the next 5-10 years: Raising my soon to be son or daughter, with my wonderful husband, to be an awesome human of course, while still maintaining a successful career in real estate.
What motivated you to live and work in Vermont: After living several years in the big city of Boston, my husband got a job offer in VT, our homestate, and we are super happy to be back. VT is so much more welcoming and in tune with our pace of life.
Career Highlights: Constant highlights always include happy/satisfied clients. Individual high moments include the decision I made to be an individual agent at my company (instead of on a team), and <2 years after that receiving the Seven Daysies nomination for Best Real Estate Agent.
Community Involvement: Always participating in fun fundraisers for organizations like ANEW, Lund, and Camp Ta-Kum-Ta, and continued involvement with our board of realtors and committees in the realtor community.
