Sidney was born and raised in Manhattan, where her Dutch forefathers settled in the 1600s. The landmark architecture of the city has special meaning for her, with her deep knowledge of the history of much of the real estate she shells.

Sidney started her career in real estate over 25 years ago. After careers in development for not-for-profit institutions and private banking, she joined a real estate marketing firm as sales manager. That led her to a career in real estate sales that has continued to today.

Attorneys she works with have called her "highly ethical and dedicated to her clients' best interests," and grateful clients acknowledge her collaboration as "invaluable and way beyond expectations."

Sidney lives in Manhattan and is married to a lifetime New Yorker. She has brought her children up here and experienced all the challenges and pressures imposed by this vibrant city. She splits her vacation time between a home in Sag Harbor, NY, and a cabin in Stowe, VT.
