My clients have called me "The Real Estate Facilitator," and I love that title. My philosophy is to BE the agent I want to work with! That means combining my experience, education and skills to help you reach your goals.
As a kid growing up in Portland, I thought the Rogue Valley was just a place to stop for gas on the drive to Disneyland. After moving here as an adult in 1985, I began to really appreciate the allure of what I now call Southern Oregon Style. For me, that is a life that includes the benefits of community, without many of the hassles of congestion. We have fantastic weather here (go aheadask me!) world-class medical providers, super transportation options, and an outdoor natural beauty some people only know about from travel magazines.
My son was born and raised here in Southern Oregon. When he graduated from Ashland High School in 2007, I felt enormous pride and incredible gratitude for the safe and nurturing community that helped raise him. Hes a happy and healthy young adult now, and he loves coming home.
Certainly there are many beautiful and healthy places to live. Those of us who choose to live here think this is one of the best!
