Originally from Scituate, MA, Gillian grew up with a love for the ocean and spent many family vacations on Nantucket. After college, she moved to the island for the summer and worked at Nantucket Golf Club and Seaman Schepps before launching her career in real estate.

Gillian attended Thayer Academy, where she was a member of both the tennis and ski racing teams. She graduated cum laude from Endicott College with a B.S. in Hospitality Management and a minor in Spanish. During her time at Endicott, she joined the Hospitality Honors Society, played on the tennis team for all four years, and completed internships at The Langham Boston, Hilton Boston Back Bay, and Waterville Valley Town Square Condominiums.

After several seasons split between Nantucket and Florida—where she worked at The Everglades Club in Palm Beach—Gillian made Nantucket her year-round home in 2021. With a background rooted in hospitality and a passion for helping others, she is committed to creating exceptional experiences and building strong relationships with clients and the JPFCO team.

Why Nantucket:

I came to the island many times for family vacations, and always found myself yearning to come back, no matter the season. Now I am living on Nantucket year round, enjoying a beautiful, charming and simplistic way of life. I visited this island community as a tourist, and now as a year-rounder, and never have I been in a place where I have felt more at home.
