Shannon Lavin has joined William Raveis’ Norwell team, the company announced.

"It is rare to find a newly licensed agent with the obvious potential and professionalism that she brings to our company," said Jill Duffy, sales manager for the Norwell office of William Raveis Real Estate, Mortgage & Insurance. "Shannon brings a solid business background and experience in marketing and advertising, which will benefit her clients tremendously. We are fortunate to have her."

Lavin, a lifelong resident of the South Shore, lives in Braintree. She is a graduate of Bryant University earning a bachelors degree in business administration with a focus in marketing communications.

Prior to real estate, Shannon worked in Boston for several media outlets.

"I chose to join Raveis because the company’s values are similar to my own. The team environment of the Norwell office and the genuine concern for my success as a real estate professional were the reasons that I joined," Lavin said. "Plus, having all the latest technology and tools to support my clients was important to me and Raveis has them all."
