Strategy rooted in Portland

My real estate journey began in the Pearl District, studying micro-trends block by block. Today, I pair that local knowledge with data modeling, storytelling, and a vetted team of experts so you feel confident from the first consult through the keys changing hands.

Clients trust me to see around corners, advocate fiercely, and communicate before questions arise. Whether you’re upsizing, relocating, or optimizing an investment portfolio, we design a plan that matches your goals, timeline, and comfort level.
