Direct: 630.730.0685

Hi, I’m Lia! I’m the Founder and Managing Broker of ROAM Real Estate Inc., specializing in luxury real estate and high-end commercial spaces. Whether it’s a bustling restaurant location, a prime retail storefront, or a beautifully curated luxury home or apartment, I bring over 20 years of experience and a passion for finding the perfect fit for my clients.

I live in the Gold Coast with my husband and our two dogs, Layla and Roscoe, who keep life fun and full of adventure. When I’m not working, I love exploring Chicago’s restaurants, traveling, or writing music in Nashville.

I’m deeply invested in the neighborhoods where I live and work, helping to bring the best businesses, experiences, and opportunities to the community. I’m proud to be a partner with Choose Chicago, The Magnificent Mile Association, The Greater River North Business Association, and SOAR – the Streeterville Organization of Active Residents.

Giving back is also important to me. I serve on the Advisory Board for the Salvation Army of Northern and Central Illinois, advocating for housing security and community initiatives.

I believe the spaces where we live and work should inspire us and support our goals. If you're looking for the perfect place to call home or grow your business, let’s connect—I’d love to help bring your vision to life.
