The coastal experience is in her blood. Lia is deeply rooted in the Northeast and grew up summering on Cape Cod. She continues the tradition with her husband, three boys, and chocolate lab. Her ideal day would include a family beach trip building sandcastles, taking a boat ride and capping the day with a lobster roll, Four Seas ice cream, and a glass of crisp Prosecco.
“Her composure and can-do attitude were a breath of fresh air along the whole process. Lia was kind, flexible, encouraging, and happy to work through every obstacle. She handled all of the details big and small, many of them we didn't even think about!”
