More About Me

Why I Got Into Real Estate

Over several years I found myself helping numerous friends and family find homes, find agents, find great mortgages and make sure they got good deals and good service. I was always referring them to good painters, handymen, gardeners and plumbers. Inevitably, they'd always say to me, "you should do this for a living because you're so good at it." After a short stint as an assistant for another agent, I was having so much fun that I decided to do it full time!

My Background

I've lived on the Eastside for 40 years. I went to high school in Bellevue and majored in Sociology at the University of Washington. Initially, I worked in escrow with Chicago Title. However, I missed the daily interaction with customers and returned to retail, helping customers fulfill their dreams with fine jewelry until I decided to help a friend and agent with her business. During that time, I found out how much I enjoyed helping people find a place they could call home. I was hooked.

My Philosophy

Our relationship is not just about buying or selling a house. I want to help you satisfy a dream. I believe you should enjoy the entire process from start to finish. My goal is to be there every step of the way. Whether it be preparing your home to sell or helping you with inspections and contractors when buying a home. The highest compliment that I can receive is to have you so thrilled with my work, that you want what I have given you for your friends and family.

My Committment To You

I have been helping clients find the one thing that makes them feel special since I was 15. I do that by listening first, then by working tirelessly to put you in a position to realize your dream. Whether you are looking to stay informed, find or sell a home or improve your existing home, I will bring my resources, my experience in the market and my experience in escrow to help you realize your dream and help us to develop a successful and lasting relationship.
