After growing up in Billings and completing my degree at Montana State University, I embarked upon a retail career accompanied by exciting city-hopping, eventually settling in Seattle, my family's home of over 20 years. Living in Dallas, Atlanta, San Francisco and New York City exposed me directly to people of all cultures, all types of living arrangements, and a broad range of real estate realities and regulations. Similarly, having spent over two decades at global retailers Nordstrom, Macy's and Zulily has provided me with valuable skills that I use daily in my real estate work: pricing, negotiating and influencing; educating buyers and sellers; marketing and promoting. As a former retail merchant, the client has always been at the center of my mindset and work. And doing what is best and right for the client is just in my DNA. I'm "all in" to exceed your expectations.
My deep experience leading and training teams allows me to explain complex processes and requirements in a clear, concise and easy to understand manner. I will guide you step by step and make home buying or selling as easy and pain-free as possible. Our team is here to support your needs: contractors, roofers, inspectors, stagers, photographers and handymen. Clients and colleagues consistently describe me as proactive, resourceful, detail-oriented, available, quick to respond, friendly and fun to be around. Clients realize early that I will work hard on their behalf and hold their best interests close; in return, they know that they can trust me.
My superpower is listening to what you say (and what you do not say) and verifying what you mean so that I know and understand what matters most to you. Whether you are buying your first home, downsizing, expanding to a bigger home for a growing family, looking for a 55+ community, or searching for a second home or investment property, I will work tirelessly on your behalf until you find the home that best matches your lifestyle needs.
And one last note...I have a deaf mother and have been signing my whole life. I have a daughter's understanding and respect for cultures that may be underserved. I will work side by side with home buyers and sellers that require a supportive partner to speak their language.
When you're ready to get started, I'm ready to help you!
