About The Agent
Personal Statement:
"Modern society will find no solution to the ecological problem unless it takes a serious look at its lifestyle" - Pope John Paul II
Western Washington abounds with people seeking a better quality of life for themselves, their families and the environment. For many, this includes the desire for more earth-friendly options in how they live, work and play. With over 20 years of experience as a Realtor in Washington, I have witnessed our regions growth firsthand. The impact this growth has on our environment concerns me. We all need to do our part to minimize the impact of this growth - whether it be buying local organic produce; caring for our landscaping with natural products; using energy efficient appliances; building or remodeling with eco-friendly products - the list goes on and on. I am excited about my Eco-Broker designation. It gives me the opportunity to share ideas, resources and options with my clients that will lead to healthier, more eco-conscious living.
My Mission Statement:
To supply easily understandable and helpful information and services to consumers who are looking to reduce the impact of their footprint on the earth. To provide outstanding service to my buyers and sellers, I believe that a partnership is essential. I form lifelong friendships with many of my clients and am proud to say that much of my business is based on referrals. I truly love my job and it shows in my attitude and dedication.

It’s well and good to learn from a lecture. But rarely is a lecture life-changing. Washington is called the evergreen state. We love our trees, the great outdoors and
