Growing up in Richland, I always appreciated the Alphabet homes and the history of the Hanford area. After graduating from Richland High, I headed to WSU Pullman for a degree in Spanish/Business and even did a study abroad in Costa Rica! It was just before heading abroad, that I came home for the summer and worked at a local Real Estate office and realized my passion for this industry! I took all my Real Estate classes online in Costa Rica, as well as attending a University there. After graduating from WSU, I dove into Real Estate here in the Tri-Cities, specializing in Alphabet homes and working my first several years with a builder. In these first years, I fell in love with the building process and helping people design and tweak their floor plans to fit their lives. Fast forward almost 15 years, and I have added a few crazy kids into my life, have hobbies that include home/interior design, working out, and collecting houseplants and critters that my kids love and husband politely tolerates. I have gained a WHOLE LOT of experience in helping people build, buy, and sell Real Estate. I have discovered a passion for design and remodels, doing many personal remodels and a build. I absolutely love thinking about all aspects of how a house and property can be both functional and awesome for those who will call it home. It's such a fun puzzle to match unique people to unique properties. Today, I truly love Real Estate just as much, if not more, than I did back when I began.
