Born and raised in Brisbane, Australia, I moved to the US in 2002 to play college basketball. Since then, Oregon has become my home. Over the years Ive gained a great deal of knowledge about Portland and its surrounding areas. Growing up in Australia, I watched my father run several investment properties (long-term rentals, a short-term beach rental, business spaces) and was always very interested in real estate.
I worked as a teacher for 15 years (4th grade and elementary PE) but spent my weekends visiting open houses as well as checking websites daily to see what inventory was available and keeping current with market trends. While teaching I bought, renovated and sold three homes. I realized the real estate urge was too great however, and knew flipping homes wasnt enough to quench my thirst. The decision to change careers was an easy one. I gained a lot of valuable skills through teaching that have helped me in real estate, such as negotiating, communicating, planning, organization and time management.
As a client of mine, you can take comfort in knowing that I have your best interests at heart. Real estate can be stressful, but I will be alongside you every step of the way.
When I'm not working, you can find me watching the Portland Trailblazers, spending time with my daughter, working on my current home projects, exercising, or catching up with family and friends.
