My Story | western washington Real Estate Agent & Relocation Specialist
Originally from Phoenix, Arizona, I relocated to Washington through my husband's career and quickly fell in love with everything the Pacific Northwest has to offer. Today, I'm proud to call Western Washington home and enjoy sharing my local knowledge with clients who are moving to the area. From waterfront communities and charming small towns to vibrant neighborhoods throughout Tacoma, Gig Harbor, Puyallup, University Place, Lakewood, Olympia, Lacey, Dupont, Bonney Lake, Sumner, and beyond, I love helping people find the community that truly feels like home.
When I'm not helping clients, you'll usually find me out on the water, hiking one of Washington's beautiful trails, or exploring everything this incredible region has to offer. I'm also honored to support military families through my volunteer work with the USO at Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM), a cause that's deeply personal to me.
If you're looking for a Western Washington Realtor who values honesty, communication, strong negotiation, and personalized service, you’ve come to the right place!
Whether you're buying, selling, relocating, or preparing for your next PCS move, let's make your next chapter one you're excited about.
-
When my family originally moved to Washington, we were so overwhelmed! The market was completely different from Arizona. We also hadn’t purchased a home in 12 years (we bought our last home in Phoenix in 2001!!) Needless to say, the process of buying a house had completely changed!
Unfortunately, the experience wasn't what we had hoped for. We walked away from closing with almost more questions than answers. I remember thinking how different the process could have felt if someone had taken the time to educate us, communicate clearly, and truly advocate for us every step of the way.
Looking back, that experience became the foundation for my career. As I discovered the charm of Washington's historic homes, the beauty of its gardens, and the communities that make this state so special, I realized I needed to step up and be the change I wanted to see in the real estate industry! Someone who is ethical, who is transparent, and who stands up for what is right.
