I am a hard working, organized, and passionate Realtor. I specialize in representing clients interested in buying and selling property in Columbus and surrounding suburbs.
I was born and raised in Columbus, Ohio and live in Clintonville with my wife Jamie, and our menagerie of animals! I am also a professional artist and have taught high school art for the last 20 years. Real estate has been a passion of mine for the last 10 years and I love working with my LGBTQ+ clients!
From first time home buyers to experienced sellers, I pride myself in being supportive, communicative, kind and knowledgeable.
I am dedicated to representing my clients and their needs in the most effective ways. I will guide you through every step of the process with clear goals and information, having fun along the way. And as a skilled negotiator--will get you to the closing table!

Katie helped me find a house that had everything I was looking for at slightly less than I was willing to pay. Then she helped me find a loan that was far better than I expected! She also had numerous recommendations for good quality contractors after I moved in. She made every step of the process smooth and fun. I would refer her to all of my friends!

Katie is simply the best, always available and incredibly responsive whenever you have questions along the way. She will do everything in her power to get you the best deal, and make sure you are well well taken care of. It’s a daunting process buying a house, Katie makes it as stress free as possible.

We are so grateful for Katie and her expert advice and guidance throughout the home buying process. From the initial home search to showings and making an offer, Katie was incredibly knowledgeable and responsive, keeping us informed every step of the way. Her work didn’t stop after our closing. Katie continues to provide resources and contacts to help with items that need addressing from the home inspection report. She made things easy for us and we highly recommend working with Katie. Thank you for everything you did for us, Katie! You helped us to accomplish one of our major goals!

Katie is truly a rockstar realtor! She just helped my partner and I buy our first home together and she made the experience SO easy. We felt very supported throughout the whole process and always knew what the next steps were and how we were tracking on our closing timeline because of Katie’s organization. She is super responsive and always punctual. The home we bought we had seen online and were not interested, but we looked at it upon Katie’s recommendation and loved it. She has great intuition. She has personal experience with rental properties and renovations as well. Katie has a keen eye for any issues or potential issues that could arise when looking at properties. She also has great recommendations for inspectors, contractors, lenders, etc. We have used a few of her contacts thus far and have been very impressed. Thank you Katie for being the best!

I cannot stress enough how vital Katie was for our first time home buying experience. She was there for us during the good, the bad, and everything in between. She is incredibly experienced in her market and knows her way around Columbus and its surrounding areas. We didn't even know our new neighborhood existed until she introduced us! If you are looking for someone who is honest, insightful, and just a wickedly awesome supportive person, contact Katie asap. She will fight for your perfect home flawlessly!
