What are some things you are passionate about outside of work?

Food – both exploring fun restaurants in Portland and cooking new recipes at home! Also anyone who knows me, knows I am one of the biggest Oregon State fans out there. You can find me in Corvallis at any home football game in the fall.

A favorite travel experience?

My husband and I caught the travel bug and love to explore new cities & countries each year, but Italy holds a special place in our heart. I can’t get enough of the food, wine, and culture.

Do you have any pets?

We have a sweet long haired mini dachshund, Oliver.

Guilty pleasure?

Rewatching The Office and Friends over and over.

What brought you into Real Estate?

Favorite Portland neighborhood?

As a Portland native, its hard to choose. I spent 10 years living in the Pearl District (which I loved every minute of)… but, I have lived the rest of my life in Southwest Portland. I currently reside in Hillsdale, which is the perfect mix of nature & convenience with walking trails, parks, restaurants, grocery, shops & more all less than a mile away.

Best place you’ve ever been?

Portland of course! But, Vietnam is a very close second. The people, the food, the constant buzz of scooters and commotion… I can’t get enough, and I can’t wait to go back.

Greatest accomplishment?

I practically grew up on a bike with my Dad. My first memory is riding in the back of a Burley trailer, and till this day we go on week-long cycling trips together. As a result, I have camped in over 80 different towns in Oregon, and ridden through many more. Having experienced all of Oregon, including the places far off the beaten path, is something that I am very proud of. We are truly fortunate to live in such a beautiful state.

How would your friends describe you?

Always laughing.

Where can we find you when you are not working?

You can find me kitesurfing, cycling, wine tasting, or spending the day with my wife and son & daughter hiking in the Columbia River Gorge.

 

What most excites you about your work and the contribution you make?

I enjoy getting to know people and developing friendships with our clients and community.  It has been incredible to watch how our “work” has transcended into personal friendships and a deeper meaning to our clients and community than just selling homes…I find what we do everyday to be very rewarding!

 

Favorite Food and Beverage?

I love any type of Mexican food!  I also happen to love Oregon wines….

 

Favorite Place to Travel To?

Hood River, Baja, and anywhere outside of the U.S.  My family and I love to see the world!

 

Why Real Estate?

I’m passionate about working with people and I love all the wonderful homes and neighborhoods of Portland.
