hy I Love Reno I love Reno for its unmatched access to the outdoors and its proximity to Lake Tahoe"”there's nothing like finishing a day's work and hitting the slopes, hiking a trail, or paddleboarding on the lake. Reno gives you the energy of a big city while still feeling like a close-knit community. We have an incredible dining scene with cuisines from around the world, nonstop local events, and the beauty of all four seasons. It's a lifestyle that's hard to beat"”and one I'm passionate about helping others discover.

I love that Reno has such a strong Polynesian Culture! From the Reno Aloha Festival, to our Polynesian restaurants and Halaus; Reno has so much to offer for any Polynesians moving to the area! We are becoming the 10th island!!! I have also complied a list of local vendors! Contact me for more info!

Reno has access to a variety of amenities. In the Summertime, up Mount Rose Highway is Lake Tahoe. Lake Tahoe is an international destination and Reno has premier access along with so much more. The Wintertime has just as much to offer, as Reno is a stone's throw away from some of the nation's hottest winter resorts. NorthStar, Mount Rose, Heavenly, and Kirkwood are just a few that are located right around the corner from Reno. Reno has a lively art district as well. Reno hosts an event known as Art Town during the entire month of July that showcases some of Reno's finest local artists throughout the downtown area. A drive through midtown might give you a glimpse into the compassion for artists in Reno's community as most of the traffic structures house some of Reno's most fascinating projects. Reno is constantly evolving and expanding every day. Reno's culture is strongly tied to the Basque community, as with most of Nevada, and is emphasized in the local cuisines offered at some of Reno's premier restaurants and steakhouses. Most notably during the Rib Cookoff and Hot August Nights events that are during the end of the Summer season. The highlight of the city has to be the Truckee River that can be seen brushing through the city center year round. Reno is truly a beautiful place to be a part of.
