SASKIA MADISON

Saskia, wife of Miami Dolphin Sam has joined Macken Realty. She lives in Davie with Sam and their two year old son Kellen and is five months pregnant. She recently launched her real estate career. Prior to this she was deeply involved in the Madison Avenue for Kids Foundation, something she plans to continue in spite of her busy career. The 18 month old Foundation not only gives financial help to disadvantaged children in Florida but helps them achieve a better quality of life. The program includes things such as visiting museums, teaching dining etiquette and how to apply for a job, and other skills needed to succeed in the world. Born in England, Saskia moved to Tampa when she was 10 years old where she completed most of her education. She visited Miami every month when she got older to see a best friend and it was during one of these visits that she was set up to meet Sam. “Our first date was on his birthday and we went to Joe’s Stone Crab. I took my girlfriend along as a chaperon since I really didn’t know him,” she says. Apparently it worked out well- they will be married 3 years next year. Saskia says that Sam is very supportive of her new career. She feels that this is a way to build a life after football and this is a great time to get involved since South Florida real estate is booming. In addition to her real estate license, Saskia keeps up her license as a registered pharmacist. And in her spare time she admits that she is a daredevil, something that really scares Sam. “I am not a very good swimmer but I love water sports like jet skiing. I just love to be outdoors. And I guess you would also call me a book nerd.” Since her affiliation with Macken Realty, Saskia has sold many distintive properties in Davie, Weston, and Plantation. She is tailoring her services to professional athletes as she is intimately aware of their needs and wish lists. Aligning herself with Macken Realty enhances her career in that Macken has established themselves in the niche market of providing homes to over 50 professional athletes in recent years.
