Thanks for checking out my profile! My goal here is to quickly tell you who I am & why I'm qualified to help you with your real estate needs. I've been a real estate resource to my clients for over a quarter of a century & became an agent after gaining 10 years of world-class marketing experience with IBM. I also spent 4 years doing odds & ends for American Airlines as I earned my degree at the University of North Texas. I have lived in Washington over 30 years, and, with PRIDE, now call the Evergreen State, specifically the Emerald City (Seattle), home. I am a Master Certified Negotiation Expert (only 1% of agents Nationally are MCNEs), an Accredited Buyer Representative, a Seller Representative Specialist and an Accredited Staging Professional. For over a decade, I have been voted by Seattle Magazine as Best in Client Satisfaction, providing 5 Star Service to both buyers & sellers. I am also certified by the Washington State Housing Finance Commission to teach homebuyer education classes. I've taught a number of classes over the years in a variety of venues, including the University of Washington Women's Center. Wherever your real estate needs are, I can help you. I've represented both buyers & sellers for over 27 years throughout the Puget Sound region. I've lived in West Seattle for more than 30 years, so I know it exceptionally well; however, I have hundreds of satisfied clients who have bought or sold in almost every neighborhood in Seattle - from Admiral to Zenith! Because I have a corporate background, I've been fortunate enough to work with many people relocating from out of state with Fortune 500 companies. Amazon, Boeing, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Nordstrom, REI, Starbucks...the list is extensive. As a result, I've sold & listed homes in most of the outlying areas of Seattle & the Eastside (meaning east of Lake Washington, for those relocating).  I am very familiar with the urban neighborhoods close to downtown Seattle including Ballard, Beacon Hill, Capitol Hill, Eastlake, Fremont, Greenlake, Leschi/Mt. Baker, Madison Park/Valley, Madrona, Magnolia, Maple Leaf, Phinney Ridge, Queen Anne, Ravenna, Southlake, University District, Wallingford, West Seattle, White Center & many more. If you need real estate assistance in an area I am not familiar with, I would be happy to refer you to a highly qualified agent as I work with a large network of realtors throughout Washington state. Please call, text or send me an email to open the door to my vast experience, industry knowledge & know-how. It would be my honor to guide you along the yellow brick road of your next real estate experience. I will do so sharing sage advice & helping you laugh & have fun throughout the process-I promise!
