Born and raised in Northwestern Illinois I bring that good ol' Midwest work ethic into everything I take on. My interest in Real Estate began in college while traveling along Illinois back roads and through small towns noticing the old farm houses and turn of the century properties along the way. I loved to imagine the property when it was first developed, who lived there and how it evolved over years to adapt to modern living. From an early 1900's Sears kit Bungalow to a Mid-Century Rummer I find they all have an important mark in our history and a story to tell. Historic properties continue to be a passion of mine in Real Estate today.
Licensed in 2015 I've had the opportunity to work on two high producing Real Estate teams in the Portland market and learn how to effectively represent buyers and sellers with their single biggest investment; their HOME! From the first time homebuyer to the savvy investor I pride myself in my ability to listen to my client's needs and wants in order to provide the service and guidance they need to achieve their Real Estate goals.
After living 15 years in the Portland area I moved to Salem in early 2020. I live with my husband in a custom built mid-century home that was designed and built by EJ & Shirley Harm in 1969. My free time during the Spring/Summer is spent working in the yard/garden or taking a drive in my underappreciated 90s cars. During the winter I stay warm in the kitchen cooking and baking my way through the cooler/wetter months.
With a passion for excellent service I look forward to helping Salem area buyers and sellers achieve their Real Estate goals. It starts with a conversation - let me know how I can help you!
