Born and raised in Hawaii I had the privilege of growing up with what we call the 'aloha spirit'. It gave me the tools in life to stay positive and treat others as I want to be treated. Later moving to Washington State where I spent time learning and working in the hospitality and hotel industry which later lead me to the retail sales and management industry. I moved to Bend in 1994 with my 3 kids and husband and worked with him in his custom home building business for several years. I continued to think about a career in real estate but the timing was wrong or so I thought. After managing a local plumbing showroom successfully and continuing to work with my husband in his business and with the youngest in high school I once again thought about a career in real estate.

So in a down economy and a horrible market I earned my real estate license in 2007 and have not stopped enjoying what I do. It's important for me to keep good relationships with clients but also with my colleagues in the business and remember we are all in this together. Staying focused, positive and with lots of hard work I strive to offer my clients honest and quality service to help them realize the dream of home ownership. Referrals from clients both past and present along with family and friends is a great compliment and one that I honor.
