Orissa comes to Barrett Sotheby’s International Realty as a real estate agent in Acton Mass, serving Boston’s MetroWest communities. She brings expertise in communication and problem-solving from her previous careers in public relations, promotions, and event planning, as well as years working with children and families in the community as an occupational therapist.

Orissa is a lifelong Massachusetts resident who grew up in Winchester before settling in Acton more than 15 years ago. She holds a B.A. in Communication from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst and earned her M.S. from Tufts University. She also completed graduate courses in marketing and communication at Boston University. Her extensive educational background helps her guide clients through real estate transactions.

Orissa’s passion for real estate began more than 20 years ago when she and her husband started to rehabilitate older homes. With first-hand knowledge of home renovations and repairs, she leverages her expertise for the benefit of her clients.

When Orissa is not working, she enjoys getting knee-deep in her latest home renovations, but most importantly, she treasures downtime with her husband, children, and dog.
