Meet Abi
A proud Military spouse who has undergone a PCS move from San Diego to DC, Abi Paulsen understands the need for a place to call home and the stresses involved in finding it. Whether it be your first home purchase or your tenth, every client and every transaction matters to her, and is treated with utmost care.
Abi looks at challenges as puzzles to be solved and is very dedicated and resourceful in doing so. Her keen attention to detail and strong client service orientation make the real estate experience successful and enjoyable.
"I approach every client's business with a high degree of integrity and enthusiasm," she says. "My ability to be patient and diligent in stressful environments, and to communicate openly to keep people well informed are vital to reaching a positive, satisfying outcome."
Born in San Francisco, and raised between Marin County, CA, and Tucson, AZ, Abi graduated from the University of California, San Diego with a B.S. in Biology and a minor in Education. She also graduated from UC's Teacher Credentialing Program.
