I have a background in art education, and also as an artist and in interior design. This experience has given me a strong ability to visualize and interpret what a buyer’s needs may be and to help them see the potential in a space. I can also consult with sellers on how to best stage their properties for optimum marketability. As an educator, I learned how to relay information in a clear and concise manner and how to be a good listener and communicator. Throughout my life, I have lived in many places: Nashville, New York City, New Orleans, Los Angeles, Albuquerque, and Paris, France. With the ability to compare Portland to so many other places, I can definitely say Portland is an amazing city! I have truly enjoyed discovering all the different neighborhoods, each having its own unique qualities, and would love to help you discover what you are looking for. I am a very passionate and active supporter of the arts, children, and education and donate to a number of local and national non-profit organizations.
