Jill's dream to open a luxury event and music center in Maine began while studying music and business at Northwestern University. After planning her own wedding at Granite Ridge Estate (her family home) the idea of turning it into a wedding destination was born. Her side passion for real estate began In 2007 when she and her brother Anthony established AJ Investments LLC which now operates dozens apartment units in Portland, ME as well as a manufactured housing community.
