Making a Difference
I obtained my real estate license in May, 2007, my managing broker’s license in 2018 and have been active in my local, state and national REALTOR® associations from the beginning. I was honored to serve as the President of Washington REALTORS® in 2022, the President of the Yakima Association of REALTORS® in 2012, the President of the Women's Council of REALTORS® Washington network twice, the Washington REALTORS® Treasurer, a Washington REALTORS® state director for many years and served on various committees, PAGs and work groups on all levels. Volunteering in my industry has been very rewarding with the lifelong friendships gained, education opportunities to improve our associations and profession, and the benefits gained for my clients through advocacy. My business focuses primarily on residential real estate where I represent a fairly equal number of buyers and sellers. Because of my industry involvement and repeat clients, I work primarily by referral. I strive to provide professional service to all of my clients by making the buying and selling process as stress-free as possible and having a little fun along the way! Education Matters
I believe that our responsibility to educate ourselves for the benefit of our clients never ends and designations through NAR show that commitment to education. I have earned the following designations:
ABR- Accredited Buyer's Representative
AHWD-At Home with Diversity
CRS-Certified Residential Specialist
e-Pro
GREEN-NAR's Green Designation
GRI-Graduate, Real Estate Institute
PMN-Performance Management Network
SRES-Real Estate Specialist
C2EX-Commitment to Excellence Endorsed
A Little About Me
I was born and raised in North Dakota and earned my B.S. at Dakota Wesleyan University in Mitchell, SD. After graduating, I moved to Spokane where my family had relocated and I had two wonderful sons. I've lived in Yakima since 2007. During my leisure time, you may find me hacking at a golf ball on one of our local courses, sipping a glass of w**e with friends, power walking with my dog Ace, dancing, or having an exciting travel adventure. Life is truly wonderful when you are blessed to work in a profession you love that allows you to make a difference in people's lives through homeownership.
