I am a proud Washington native, wife, mom to four incredible young adults and teens, and a late-in-life dog lover to our English Bull Terrier, Biggie Duane. Creating stability, clarity, and a sense of belonging through home has always been deeply personal to me, and it is what drives how I serve my clients. With over 14;years of real estate experience, I specialize in helping people navigate major life transitions through real estate. I believe buying or selling a home is never just a transaction. It is a decision that impacts lifestyle, finances, and emotional well-being. My goal is to create a peaceful, well-informed experience where clients feel educated, supported, confident, and safe every step of the way. In 2018, my life changed unexpectedly when I was suddenly widowed while raising four children. That season deeply shaped how I care for my clients today. It strengthened my commitment to guiding people through change with patience, compassion, and thoughtful strategy. Today, I am grateful to be happily remarried to my husband, Timm, and I continue to find purpose in helping others move forward into their next chapter. I am passionate about helping clients determine not only how to move, but whether it is the right time to move. As a relocation specialist serving Pierce County and the Greater South Sound, I proudly assist military clients relocating to and from Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM), Naval Base Kitsap – Bangor, Bremerton, and surrounding naval communities. I understand the unique challenges of PCS timelines, remote transactions, VA financing, and relocation logistics, and I strive to provide steady guidance during what can often be a fast-moving and emotional process.I intentionally support clients navigating PCS and relocation moves, widow and divorce transitions, lifestyle and move-up home transitions, first-time home buying, investment and wealth-building opportunities, luxury and lifestyle property moves, and out-of-state relocation into Washington.; Because I have personally experienced how overwhelming change can feel, I approach every client relationship with emotional intelligence and strong strategic planning.I believe exceptional service happens in the details most people never see. I am known for being diligent, proactive, and deeply prepared. This often includes personally contacting listing agents to understand each property’s story, researching competitive offer landscapes, leveraging strong vendor relationships to solve challenges, providing clear market education so clients understand why decisions are being made, and maintaining consistent communication and thoughtful preparation throughout the process. Clients also benefit from my full-time transaction coordinator, ensuring every step is organized and smoothly executed. I have lived in Washington since I was three years old and bring deep knowledge of Pierce County and the South Sound region. I proudly serve as a Pierce County market expert, Military Relocation Specialist, South Sound relocation resource, and Washington statewide and nationwide referral partner. Whether you are moving across town or across the country, I am committed to helping you land in the right place with the right support.Home represents stability, healing, growth, and new beginnings. Every client’s story matters, and it is an honor to help guide people through decisions that shape their future. I can't wait to meet you!
