Just sold in Aloha!
When I first met this buyer he told me that he needed three things: 1. a two car garage 2. single level 3. a large yard for him and his two dogs. Okay! Let the searching begin! It didn’t take long for me to discover that looking at houses wasn’t his favorite thing, but he hung in there with me! With his background in construction, his eye for perfection made finding the ‘right’ house more of a challenge. Then, this charming single level ranch came on the market in Aloha. We were the first to tour the home and the first to write an offer- an offer of many. Together, we wrote a competitive offer that the sellers ultimately accepted. My buyer was more than thrilled to finally have a place that he could feel settled and call home, plus he no longer had to leave work to run around and look at homes with me 😉
Now that Spring has arrived, he and his dogs will be able to move in and enjoy their new home and backyard to the fullest! He has many little projects he plans on completing, odds and ends to add his personal touch and make it his own. Living in Aloha puts him closer to work, family and friends. A perfect house and the perfect location!

Real Estate has always been my passion.
Growing up in the Southwest hills, with a breathtaking view of the city, I learned to appreciate Portland for all it has to offer. I fell in love with Real Estate when my family decided to move across the river to NE Portland. We spent many years looking for a home. I became mesmerized by learning the differences of the homes we toured- the details and quality of build, matched with all the original character and charm, most specifically the history that was hidden in the walls. We found ourselves living in a small Bungalow in Alameda, before moving to our large Craftsman in Irvington.
I spent the first 18 years of my life living in both SW and NE Portland, exploring the neighborhoods and all they had to offer. College took me away to Montana, where I bought my first home at the age of 19. I graduated in 2012 with a Business Marketing Degree from the University of Montana. I immediately moved home to Portland and began my real estate career. I spent the next three years working with a top producing Real Estate team, specializing in NW & SW Portland, the Pearl District and Inner NE Portland.
In 2015, I decided to start my own Real Estate endeavors. I attribute my extensive knowledge of the city, its neighborhoods and different styles of homes to my ability in finding my clients the perfect place to call home. By focusing on the individual needs and priorities of all my clients, I am able to tailor my strategies for the highest level of success.
While I am not in the office or out with clients, you can find me running, boating, wake boarding, vacationing on the Oregon coast, or watching Oregon Duck Football. I also love exploring Portland and all its great restaurants and food carts. I currently reside in the Pearl District with my French bulldog, Wrigley.
Next time you’re poised to enter the market; I would be honored to guide you through this important process!
