Raised in a Navy family, I understand both the excitement and challenges of relocating. My father was a lifelong submariner, and serving fellow Navy and submarine families is a meaningful part of my work—it’s how I stay connected to him and honor his legacy.
After graduating from Olympic College and the University of Washington, I spent nearly 20 years living in Rome, Italy, where I met my husband and had our three bilingual, bicultural children. While I treasure those years abroad, returning to the Pacific Northwest felt like coming home—and Kitsap County is the perfect place to build a life.
My background in education shapes how I approach real estate: with patience, clarity, and a genuine desire to help people feel informed and supported. I bring curiosity and care to every client relationship. As a working mom of three, I understand how overwhelming life can be, and I strive to make the process feel manageable and personal.
I’m deeply invested in our community. I serve on the board of the emerging Kitsap Children’s Museum, play an active role in parent-led leadership at Catalyst—our innovative charter school committed to reimagining education in Kitsap County—and volunteer as a coach with Girls on the Run, a program that empowers young girls through movement, mentorship, and confidence-building.
Through my brand, Living the Kitsap Life, I spotlight local businesses, share real estate insights, and celebrate the people who make this region so special. Real estate, for me, is about helping people feel at home—in every sense of the word.
I’d be honored to help you find your place here.
