I enjoy helping people actualize their lifestyle goals through home ownership. When you work with me you can expect honesty, realism, enthusiasm, experience, and compassion. I take your interests to heart. And I listen. I diligently monitor my clients’ transactions with an eye towards protecting their interests.

I have been practicing Real Estate since 2003. Prior to that, I was employed by Harry and David Corporation as the Finance Manager for the Stores division. After earning an MBA, I spent 15 years in Finance. When I met my husband, who is a custom home builder, I finally acknowledged my passion for houses. I obtained my Real Estate license and found my dream job.

I have made several Real Estate investments myself, so I understand the investor’s priorities. I am experienced with the needs of first time home owners as well as those wishing to relocate.

I relocated to Ashland from Southern California in 1997. It was a quality of life change — one of the best decisions of my life. In my off time, I enjoy just about everything Ashland and surrounds has to offer… great restaurants, diverse films, good friends, hiking, cross country skiing, swimming and yoga. I have a beautiful Labrador who makes a most excellent companion on many outings. I also have two stepsons who have been educated in the Ashland school district.
