As an Associate Sales Agent, I guide both buyers and sellers through every step of the real estate process—from initial staging and marketing placement to showings and settlement—while leveraging a trusted network of interior decorators, contractors, home inspectors, and other industry experts to help my clients make confident, informed decisions.
My career has been built on a diverse background that includes experience as a Licensed Occupational Therapist and co-owner of a high-end boutique, giving me unique insights into service, adaptability, and effective communication. I am passionate about delivering results for my clients, and I am always open to new connections and referrals. Let’s make your real estate goals a reality!

Associate Broker, Realtor®️
With over 40 years of experience in real estate across Montgomery County and beyond, I am proud to lead the Ciment & Shields Team, formerly known as the Barbara Ciment Team. In 2022 alone, we closed over $35 million in sales, following our record-breaking $44 million in 2021, which marked our most productive year yet. To date, our team has surpassed $500 million in closed sales, assisting over 500 buyers and renters across 1,000 transactions.
I am honored to have been consistently recognized as a top producer by Bethesda Magazine (2020-2022) and Washingtonian Magazine’s “Best Washingtonian” (2015-2019) and to have received the GCAAR Gold Team Award for several years. My extensive local knowledge comes from living in Montgomery County for over 45 years, and my dedication to clients is supported by a trusted network of professionals—from inspectors and appraisers to attorneys and mortgage brokers. Alongside my husband, Mel Ciment, who is also a Realtor® and Ph.D. consultant, I’m proud to have built a team that values integrity, expertise, and a client-centered approach.
With a Master’s in Guidance & Counseling from the University of Michigan, a background in teaching, and years of experience in real estate, I am committed to helping our clients make informed decisions in their real estate journeys.
