My number one priority is taking care of my clients. Above all else, this is what I want you to know. Once you have decided to work with me, I will give you the best I have to offer. This includes, but is not limited to: advocating for you, educating you on the market, being receptive to your feedback, giving you one-on-one attention, researching information on your behalf, networking your needs to other real estate professionals and potential buyers and sellers, offering you the right information in order for you to make the best decisions, being honest by giving you my professional opinion, but always honoring your decisions.


My business is run by referral only and I recognize that only happy customers pass along my name to their friends and family members. I want you to do the same.

Personal Background

I was born to be a Realtor.  From the time I was a little girl, I always made my mom take me to open houses in the Twin Cities.  My mom thought I was very observent.  I also ran my own little business out of my playhouse, complete with "contracts" and "billing", "negotiating" and "strategizing"...conveniently all of the things I do in my business today. 

The first 5 years of my life was spent on 45th and Dupont Avenue South in the East Harriet neighborhood of Minneapolis.  When my family moved out to the suburbs, I always dreamed of coming back.  Now I live only blocks away from my childhood home and I get to enjoy all of the wonderful delights I was able to as a child: the rose garden at Lake Harriet, bike trails, neighborhood coffee shops, the sledding hill at Lyndale Farmstead, the farmer's market, neighborhood restaurants and convenience stores.  I enjoy Minneapolis so much.

I graduated from Minnehaha Academy in 1995 and went on to study at the University of Colorado at Boulder.  After that, I moved out to San Diego and began my real estate career.  The midwestern people brought me back to Minneapolis and I am so proud to call it home.
