Today marks 5 years in real estate. 🏡

And fun fact: this is the longest I’ve ever stayed in one career in my adult life.

Before real estate, I worked freelance in film for years, jumping between projects that could last anywhere from a weekend to a few months. Along the way I also worked plenty of side jobs: retail, barista, server, receptionist, and occasionally videographer. Later I spent time in publishing, where I discovered how much I loved hearing people’s stories and learning what makes our communities special.

Somewhere along the way, I realized something important. What I value most isn’t the project or job itself, it’s the people behind it.

That led me to real estate.

Every day I get to help people through big life transitions and celebrate exciting milestones. I get to listen, advise, problem-solve, and help my clients make decisions they feel confident about. And together, we work toward the outcome that’s right for them.

Over the past five years, I’ve had the privilege of working with so many wonderful people. Some of my very first clients have even become dear friends (and trivia teammates!). Watching clients reach their goals—buying their first home, selling a longtime family home, starting a new chapter—is something I never take for granted.

It hasn’t always been easy (this year has certainly had its challenges already), but I can honestly say I love this work and feel incredibly grateful for the trust, support, and friendships that have come from it.

If you’ve supported my business, trusted me to help you buy or sell, referred a friend, shared advice as a fellow Realtor, or simply cheered me on along the way — thank you. It means more than you know.

Here’s to the next 5. ✨

☕️ Coffee’s On Us is Back! 💙
Mark your calendars — Friday, March 6 from 8:30–9:30 AM we’re bringing back one of my favorite feel-good events of the year: Coffee’s On Us!

Twice a year, we host this simple pay-it-forward event to help spark more small acts of kindness in our community. The idea is easy:
Stop by a participating local coffee shop, and a Portsider will treat you to a small cup of coffee. ☕️✨

I’ll be at Tern Coffee & Tea that morning and would absolutely love to see you there. (If you haven’t been to Tern yet, it’s one of my personal favorites!)

This event is all about community, connection, and spreading a little extra kindness — no catch, no sales pitch. Just coffee and good people starting their Friday on a positive note.

I’ll share the link below where you can find the full list of participating locations so you can stop by the one closest to you.

Who’s coming?! ☕️💛

Three morning showings, so I decided to bring my two best assistants along for the ride.
We started the day with snowy playtime, hit the road early, squeezed in a surprise trail walk between appointments, and wrapped things up with a well-earned visit to Merrymeeting Dog Park (and met a new friend named Lulu ).
They each earned a new chewy bone when we got home.

First-time homebuyers have been the heartbeat of my business this quarter, and I couldn’t be more thankful. 🏡✨

Every closing this season was with a first-time buyer, and their excitement, trust, and curiosity brought so much joy into my work. These clients show up eager to learn, ready to ask all the questions, and committed to finding the right home.

Seeing them succeed (and watching one very proud Aussie pup enjoy his new yard) is the absolute best part of the job!

Food insecurity in our community is rising fast. Funding to local food banks has been cut by more than 50%, yet demand is up at our local food banks. Too many of our Midcoast neighbors are feeling it. No one in our community should ever have to go hungry. 💛

As we head into the season of giving, Portside Real Estate Group in Brunswick is now an official drop-off location for Midcoast Hunger Prevention Program.

📍 24/7 outdoor drop-off box at our front door
🚗 Roadside signage is up—easy to spot and easy to donate

If you're able, please consider dropping off non-perishables or sharing this post to help spread the word. Supporting MCHPP means supporting local families right here in the Midcoast. Every donation matters.

📣 Say hello to our newest family member… Mai Tai 🐶🍹 (yes, like the drink 😉).

She’s already stolen our hearts — and most of our shoes. 💕 Her current hobbies include:

🐾 Treating every meal like an Olympic event
🐾 Copying her auntie Olive’s every move (Olive is the BEST big sis 🐾)

Huge thanks to for bringing this sweet girl into our lives. Get ready for lots of puppy spam — this is just the beginning! ✨🐾

📣 We have a new family member!
Meet Mai Tai 🐶🍹 (yes, like the drink 😉).

🐾 Falling asleep to the Great British Bake Off
🐾 Treating each meal like a competitive sport
🐾 Copying her auntie Olive’s every move

We are so grateful to Rescue Charlie's Friends for bringing her into our lives. Prepare yourself for some very cute puppy moments in your feed — this is just the beginning! 🐾✨

Real estate tip? Don’t always play it cool.
Sometimes, showing up with heart is what gets you the house. 💛

We just closed on a home that my Buyers absolutely adored. The Sellers had recently been through a heartbreaking deal that fell through, and they were understandably nervous.

Knowing that, my Buyers and I agreed—honesty was the best approach. They made it clear: they loved the home, they wouldn’t shy away from problems, and they were committed to making it work. And guess what? That sincere connection helped ease the Sellers’ fears—and ultimately, got them the house.

This was a true team effort. We were able to honor the Sellers' need for reassurance while protecting our Buyers from any major risks. And in the end, everyone walked away feeling seen, respected, and excited for what’s next. ✨

So proud of these wonderful Buyers and thrilled to welcome them to their new home.

Sold! 🐚✨ This one felt like coming home.

I grew up just around the corner from Dipper Cove, and it meant the world to be invited back to help my neighbor sell their beautiful home in this special waterfront community.

I first met the Buyers at an open house nearly a year ago—and was so excited to see them again at this open house. Today, we handed them the keys the home they have been patiently waiting for in Dipper Cove.

It was one of those joyful sales where everyone walked away happy.

So much respect. So much ease. So much gratitude.

Congrats to all—and welcome home.
