Some people find their way to Port Townsend later in life. I've been lucky enough to know this place for as long as I can remember.
I've been visiting Port Townsend since I was born, spending every summer here year after year. While I grew up in Spokane, the Olympic Peninsula always had my heart. Those summers shaped me---salty air, ferry rides, small-town charm, and that unmistakable feeling that life moves just a little more intentionally here.
At 21, I made the leap that felt inevitable: I moved to Port Townsend, got married, and soon after started a family. My two children have grown up surrounded by the same natural beauty, strong sense of community, and slightly unpredictable weather that first pulled me in all those years ago.
Before real estate found me, I spent my career working with people in just about every way imaginable. I've worked in restaurants, banking, at the local hospital, and in escrow. Each role taught me something different, but they all shared one common thread: helping people navigate important moments in their lives with care, clarity, and a sense of calm.
Escrow, in particular, opened the door to real estate---and once I stepped through it, I knew I'd found my place. Real estate brings together everything I value: relationships, problem-solving, attention to detail, and the opportunity to guide people through one of the biggest decisions they'll ever make.
Whether you're searching for your first home, a place to grow your family, a quieter chapter, or a weekend escape, my goal is simple: to listen carefully, advocate fiercely, and make the process as smooth (and stress-free) as possible. Real estate doesn't have to feel overwhelming---and it certainly shouldn't feel impersonal.
I bring professionalism, honesty, local knowledge, and just enough humor to keep things human. Buying or selling a home is a big deal, but it can still be an experience you feel good about from start to finish.
If Port Townsend or the Olympic Peninsula is calling you---or if you're already here and thinking about your next move, I'd love to help you find a home that truly fits your life.
After all, I didn't choose this place. It's been choosing me my whole life.
