About me

Diane Guercio at Inman Connect NYC 2010

Who am I?

First of all, I guess I am a mother. I have been one for most of my life, and today as I write this my youngest, who is 11 years old, is sitting in the living room watching her favorite movie on a DVD on the other couch.

I am also a real estate sales agent licensed in MA. Much of last year was spent building the TwitterQueens community with my two friends Maya Paveza and Lesley Lambert, and from that friendship forming TQI Consulting. I have learned to be pretty proficient in WordPress setup, and have presented many times with Maya and Lesley at Social Media/Tech/Real Estate conferences. I have gone to 3 Inman Connect conferences, RETech South, PodCamp Western MA, many REBar Camps and helped to host a conference in NYC for the TwitterQueens – the TQNYC event. I love the ideas that I pick up to bring home and implement, and more than that, I love the energy and the networking.  And I love getting back home to implement those ideas.

Tech in real estate is not a passing fad, any more than the telephone is a passing fad, or the postal service is a passing fad. Whether we like it or not, things change. One thing that I don’t do is jump on the newest thing just because it is the newest thing- unless I can see the merit to doing so. In many instances, I think that another word for “early adopters” is “guinea pig.” I WILL  learn something new if it has been tested and has merit in business.

I also am an artist, a reader, a gardener (sometimes). Not much of a housewife!
