Ellen O’Donnell truly believes that being a successful real estate agent is all about people — how you treat them and how diligently you pursue their goals. That’s why her clients rave about her friendly, knowledgeable service and her diligent, full-service approach. Ellen is highly creative, solutions-focused, and an absolute pro when it comes to staging homes for maximum appeal. As a proud member of Lamacchia Realty Braintree, she specializes in helping buyers and sellers make their real estate dreams a reality from Quincy to the South Shore.
Prior to real estate, Ellen was a global index portfolio manager for a large insurance company and an administrative director for a Harvard University research center. With that impressive pedigree, it’s no surprise Ellen wields a thorough understanding of technology, elite organizational skills, and invaluable financial acumen.
Originally from Falmouth, Ellen earned her bachelor’s degree in human development from Wheelock College. She resides in Quincy’s Forbes Hill neighborhood with her husband and two daughters. Ellen is passionate about cooking and gardening, and she loves spending time with family and friends, reading, walking, riding bikes, or heading to the beach.
