I was raised on the Eastside and have lived in Seattle for the past 30 years. My years as a Northwest resident have made me an expert in local issues such as neighborhood communities, zoning & building codes, school districts & commuting concerns. I also know what’s best about the Puget Sound area. I know the best restaurants, stores, schools and chocolatiers. Let me show you the neighborhoods and I will buy you a latte.

Real estate is a process that takes a strategy to make a sound investment. The process begins with identifying your needs and desires and then becoming familiar with the current market, financing options, legal and contract issues. I will help you prioritize your needs and goals, share resources for financing and will discuss legal and contract issues you need to be aware of to protect your interests. The strategy involves how to find that right house or how to sell your home. It involves marketing, timing, writing and negotiating the offer and then working to ensure a smooth closing. I will work to find you a home that fits your interests and needs, but is also a sound investment with opportunity for future return. If you are selling I will help you prepare and market your home for you to get a timely sale at the best possible price.

I’ve worked in commercial interior design and construction management for 20 years. This experience has given me a great background in what makes a home special. My years working for Nordstrom and Starbucks have given me high standards for customer service. Whether by phone, e-mail or in person, I will be in communication with you helping to solve any concern that arises. I am very resourceful and love challenges and will work toward successful transactions.
