Agent
Elizabeth considers her path to real estate and Krauss Brokerage in 2009 a natural progression fusing together her professional background and her passion for people. A long- time northern Baltimore County resident with roots in Harford County, Elizabeth graduated from Loyola University with a degree in finance and marketing. From negotiation and management of defense & aviation contracts, to business development consulting, and hands-on owner/operator of a busy downtown restaurant, the common thread woven throughout was critical thinking, multi-tasking, strong work ethic, and human connection.
Having climbed the corporate ladder, juggled children with career, full time “mothered,” and settling into empty-nesting, she’s done it all so she relates to many. Her clients are diverse, loyal, and many are now called friends. First time home buyers, downsizing empty nesters, condos and farms, city and county, long-time residents and relocations, she embraces each client and their uniqueness tirelessly working to help transition to their next phase of life. She considers this the most rewarding aspect and the “why” for what she has chosen to do.

I’m passionate about improving in all areas… skills, knowledge, health, organization, time management, relationships…
Totem animal… According to an internet questionnaire I am a bear. “Humorous and playful with a natural fortitude, assurance and aptitude when taking on leadership roles. Bear people growl at adversity and come to the rescue of those in their circle in times of need. “ Hmmm.
Best habit… Sitting down at the kitchen table together for dinner every night no matter how late or how many are home
