About the Founder - Dara Sklar

Administrative & Marketing Experience - and an eye for typos

Professionally, Dara has enjoyed doing administrative and computer work since the age of 16. She worked as an Office Manager while she finished her Bachelor of Commerce at Concordia University in Montreal, and as Western Operations Manager for a sporting goods distributor (Black Knight) for over five years. Both personally and professionally, she is somewhat of a perfectionist - especially aware of typos, spelling and grammatical errors on people's websites. (Dara says that she is somewhat embarrassed to admit, "I have even been known to call or email Realtors to let them know about such errors in their listing descriptions... "window shudders" instead of "window shutters" is one that comes to mind.") Doing things the "Dara" way translates into an even better service to Realty Support clients who benefit from Dara's picky eye for detail as well as the multitude of other skills she brings to the table.

On a Personal Level

Dara moved to Vancouver in 2001 from Montreal and has never looked back. She loves Vancouver and showing it off to visiting friends and family. Dara was an avid cycle commuter since the bus strike in April of 2001, and more recently started driving a scooter around town. Dara's sports of choice are Ultimate Frisbee (Vancouver Ultimate League team: Slow Children Playing) and Squash (member at Jericho Tennis Club, participant in the Vancouver City Squash League and many tournaments, and proud user of Black Knight racquets and accessories!).
