"There's No Place Like Home!"  One of the greatest joys in my life is helping others find the joy and comfort that comes with "home."   I first became a licensed realtor in Olympia when I was 21, before I went back to college (TESC).  I've worn a lot of hats since then.  My background includes working in family and children's services, serving as the executive director of the Pacific Coast Shellfish Growers Association, founding Discovery Bay Shellfish Farm in Port Townsend, and working as a professional singer and songwriter.
I've come full circle, bringing all my life experiences to bear on my real estate career.  And throughout all these vocational changes, my husband Peter and I built and remodeled numerous homes, both as investors and homeowners.  All these experiences are integral to my ability to negotiate on behalf of both buyers and sellers no matter where they are in their life journey.  And I'm committed to continuing education so I can provide the highest service and expertise to my clients.  I'm both a Seller Representative Specialist and Accredited Buyer's Representative, two designations credentialed through the National Association of Realtors. 
Today, much of my time is devoted to serving as a trustee with the Thurston Housing Land Trust, a non-profit organization committed to creating affordable homeownership opportunities.  Working with other members of the local community, it's our goal to make the dream of home ownership a reality for individuals and families who might not otherwise be able to afford it.  Because there really is NO PLACE LIKE HOME!
