Hi, I'm !


Born in Louisiana and raised until college age in Alabama, I moved to the Chicagoland area after high school to attend college. There I met, dated, and married Dwight, my husband of now 35+ years. We took seriously to ‘fill the earth’ and added to our family five incredible individuals.  After 22 years in the midwest, in 2009, we hit the Oregon trail and moved our family to the PNW. Settling in McMinnville it felt as if we had ‘come home’.  A few years later we adopted our youngest child, a 10 year old at the time, who is now 21.  All of our children, and their kids, reside in NW Oregon!


I have worked retail on lovely, historic, 3rd St. for many years. Dwight and I daily walk our two Siberian Huskies down 3rd Street, often stopping to meet and greet locals, and visiting guests, while enjoying a beverage or a food treat. We frequent the great eating establishments throughout Yamhill county and enjoy all the lovely vineyards and local wineries.


A couple key strengths of mine are diligence and tenacity. When I start something, I refuse to give up. This comes in handy when searching for homes with every box checked! Having run an Airbnb as a super host for five consecutive years, I know the importance of paying attention to the details and consistently offering the best in customer service and making sure to take care of all the little touches. I also have a knack for helping others decorate, or stage their homes for events, or listing them, and truly believe presentation is king. 


As your agent when buying, I will help you find just the right house, seeing the potential to make it your perfect home!  Likewise, when selling and listing, I offer my skills and experience staging, along with my attention to detail, to help your buyers see the potential to make your house, their perfect home!


I'm here to help you throughout your entire home buying and selling process. Trying to do it all on your own can be burdensome. I'll find you homes within your price range, help you find buyers, assist you with paperwork, and more.
