Community Involvement
Giving back to the community is something that is important to me both personally and professionally. I enjoy spending time mentoring young adults in the community, offering guidance, encouragement, and sharing experiences that may help them navigate their early career and life decisions. I also believe in supporting the organizations that make our local communities stronger. Throughout the year I contribute to and support a variety of charitable causes and local initiatives that serve families and individuals throughout the South Sound region. Being involved in the community allows me to build meaningful relationships beyond real estate and stay connected to the people and neighborhoods I have the privilege of serving.

FAQ
Start by getting fully prepared before you begin your home search. Speak with a trusted lender to understand your financing options and what price range fits comfortably within your budget. Having a clear pre-approval in place strengthens your position and allows you to act confidently when the right home becomes available.
It is also important to focus on long term value rather than trying to time the market perfectly. The right home should support your lifestyle, location needs, and future plans. Work with a knowledgeable local agent who understands the market and can guide you through pricing, negotiations, and inspections so you avoid costly mistakes.
Finally, be patient but ready to move when the right opportunity appears. A well prepared buyer with the right guidance is always in the strongest position to succeed in today’s market.
Preparation and pricing strategy are the two most important factors when selling a home. Before going on the market, take time to make the property show at its best. Simple improvements like decluttering, cleaning, small repairs, and proper staging can significantly increase buyer interest and help your home stand out from competing listings.
Equally important is pricing the home correctly from the start. The first couple of weeks on the market are when your home receives the most attention, so setting a strategic price based on current market data and comparable sales is critical to attracting strong offers.
Finally, work with an agent who has a clear marketing plan and understands the local market. Professional photos, strong online exposure, and thoughtful negotiation can make a meaningful difference in both the speed of the sale and the final price.
I have worked with a wide range of clients throughout Washington State, including first time homebuyers, move up homeowners, investors, and sellers looking to transition into their next chapter. Many of my clients are families relocating to the South Sound area as well as service members and military families moving to or from Joint Base Lewis McChord.
I also assist buyers purchasing land, investment properties, and homes that need renovation, as well as sellers preparing their homes for market to maximize value. Every client has different goals, so I focus on understanding their situation and providing clear guidance throughout the process.
My goal is always to make the experience smooth, informed, and successful whether someone is buying their first home, relocating, investing, or selling a longtime residence.
One transaction that was especially meaningful to me was helping guide my 22 year old son and his wife through the purchase of their first home in the Olympia area. While I have had the privilege of helping many clients buy and sell homes over the years, being able to walk my own family through the process was a special experience.
Like many first time buyers, they had a lot of questions about financing, the offer process, inspections, and what to expect at each stage. It gave me the opportunity to slow things down, explain each step clearly, and help them make confident decisions along the way.
My wife, who is a mortgage loan officer, was also able to help on the financing side. Working together as a team allowed us to support them through both the lending and real estate aspects of the transaction and help turn their goal of homeownership into a reality.
Seeing them receive the keys to their first home and begin that next chapter was incredibly rewarding and a great reminder of why I enjoy helping people navigate one of life’s biggest milestones.
Before entering real estate, I spent years working in sales and organizational leadership roles where I had the opportunity to work closely with people, build relationships, and help guide teams toward shared goals. I really enjoyed the people side of that work, helping others solve problems, make decisions, and move forward with confidence.
I initially began working in real estate part time, but it quickly became a passion. I found the opportunity to help individuals and families through important life decisions incredibly rewarding. At the same time, real estate allowed me to pursue my entrepreneurial goals by building a business centered around service, relationships, and long term trust.
What started as a part time endeavor quickly grew into a full time career, and today I continue to enjoy helping clients navigate the buying and selling process while building a business that reflects my values of service, integrity, and strong communication.
I am a licensed REALTOR® in Washington State and hold the Military Relocation Professional (MRP) designation, which provides specialized training in assisting active duty service members, veterans, and military families relocating to and from communities around Joint Base Lewis-McChord.
In addition to my real estate designations, I serve as a certified mentor within eXp Realty, helping agents who are new to the brokerage learn best practices in contracts, negotiations, and client service. I also lead and collaborate with a small group of local agents, which keeps me actively engaged in sharing market insights, strategies, and solutions to better serve our clients.
Prior to and throughout my real estate career, I have held leadership roles that involved sales, negotiation, and team development. That background has strengthened my ability to advocate for clients, structure strong offers, and negotiate effectively on both the buying and selling side of a transaction.
With more than a decade of experience and a consistent history of helping clients successfully buy and sell homes, I focus on providing clear guidance, thoughtful strategy, and steady support throughout the entire process.
