Debra DeSena joined Marron Gildea & Donohue’s rapidly expanding Ridgewood office, a company spokesperson announced today. 

“We are thrilled to have Debra as the newest member of our Ridgewood Team”, said Aloysius Donohue, a managing partner at the firm.  “She has been delivering great results for clients here in Ridgewood for many years and we know she will continue to grow at Marron Gildea & Donohue.  Debra is a hard-working agent with excellent interpersonal and analytical skills.  She is the prototype for an agent that will succeed in any market. ”

Debra is a Bergen County native, and currently lives in Ridgewood with her husband and two children, who both attend Somerville Elementary School.  Prior to entering the real estate business, Debra worked for a prestigious Manhattan Law Firm. She feels that having worked on real estate deals in both a legal and a sales capacity gives her a unique perspective and an advantage in today’s competitive marketplace.  Debra is very active in community events and spends a lot of time volunteering at Somerville School.  Her family is also very involved in various sports programs here in Ridgewood where her husband volunteers as a little league coach.

 ”I am so excited to be part of the Marron Gildea & Donohue family,” said DeSena.  “I’ve heard so much about the training that agents receive here and about the lead distribution system. I know I will benefit greatly from both.”  DeSena notes that she has been with the firm for less than two weeks and already feels at home.  She says that the positive, upbeat outlook of her fellow agents is contagious.  She attributes this to the fact that Marron Gildea & Donohue’s Ridgewood Office is growing at a rapid clip – even in this challenging market.  DeSena says she is really looking forward to “ringing the bell” which refers to the ritual within the office of having agents ring a giant bell to let everyone in the office know that another successful deal has been closed.  If everything  goes as well as DeSena plans, the Marron Gildea & Donohue office will be a very loud place to work in 2009.
