As a Columbia County native and Chatham High School graduate, I have lived here in beautiful upstate NY nearly my entire life. I briefly left the area to attend college, earning a BA in Communications from the University of Central Florida. Prior to returning home, I had wonderful experiences being a brand representative for various marketing firms. I traveled nationwide to advertise and boost sales for a 2003 M&M’s candy campaign, and also team managed a product launch in the Northeast, including our Hudson Valley area, for Dunkin’ Donuts brand.

I always knew I would return to where my roots are and raise my family, which during the past six years I have been a stay at home mom for my two very active boys. I enjoy spending time with my family, and appreciating the incredible outdoors and community events that Columbia County has to offer.With my background in the marketing/promotional industry and love for interacting with people, I believe that strong morals such as honesty, courtesy and respect in all relationships are the most valuable characteristics one should possess when assisting consumers. My goal is to bring the upmost, friendly and positive experience to all home buyers and sellers that I may have the pleasure to work with. I am excited about joining such a reputable, hometown agency as Beach and Bartolo. I look forward to helping people find their dream home.

TESTIMONIALS:
“From the initial call to Beach and Bartolo Realtors, Inc we realized that your organization was a dynamic and professional one. One of the initial steps you took was to introduce us to your organization and explain your strategy of marketing our home. Your salesperson, Mrs. Tia Nielsen is an excellent representative for your organization. The most outstanding attribute among many, was her ability to communicate followed by her empathy for those she ably worked for. We have dealt with many sales people in our 52 years of marriage in buying and selling homes and never had the pleasure of experiencing the services that Tia provided.” -Emma and Joe Nolan (2014)
