Hi there! I’m a retired Navy spouse and mother to 4 beautiful (grown) daughters and one furry rescue dog. After growing up in the heartland of America – the Land of Lincoln – my family moved to Charleston, SC, where I completed school, learned to catch crabs and throw a shrimp net and met my husband. The Navy brought our family to Newport and for that, I am so grateful! Before long, I fell in love with the beaches and sea that surround our picturesque island, became a part of the community and learned to understand the not-so-necessary need to ever leave Aquidneck Island.
As an artist, I look at everything around me through a special lens that recognizes beauty and allure in the most simplistic of nature’s details. When I want to relax, I set up the paints and canvas and go to “work!” Gardening is also a therapeutic pastime for me, as well as cooking or reading a good book.
I enjoy meeting new people and helping newcomers find a new place to call home which has fostered my interest in real estate.

5 Stars Aren’t Enough!
I can’t thank Amy Burnes enough for her incredible help and dedication!My partners’ orders were unexpectedly moved up by 6 months, leaving us scrambling to find a short-term lease with a mid-month move-in date to avoid double rent. Amy went above and beyond; she found us the perfect place in just one week, and during the hectic holiday season no less! Her constant communication, thoughtful guidance, and calm expertise kept our stress levels in check throughout the entire process. As a military family navigating a PCS to Newport, we truly felt supported every step of the way. If you’re looking for a home in the Newport area, especially if you’re military, there is no one more qualified, responsive, or genuinely caring than Amy. Thanks to her, we’re thrilled to now call Newport our home!
Highly recommend—5 stars aren’t enough! them.
