Roseway is a family friendly neighborhood filled with vintage charms and businesses. Roseway is close to I-84 ad I-205 for an easy commute and quick access to the airport. The three neighborhood schools are Scott Elementary, Roseway Heights Middle School, which has been a school since 1911, and McDaniels High School. McDaniels was formerly known as Madison High School and is undergoing a major renovation with plans to re-open in Fall of 2021. The neighborhood includes 2 city parks, Wellington Park and Glenhaven Park, and Portland’s unofficial East Park Blocks, also known as the Roseway Parkway on 72nd Ave.
Roseway Destinations:
Roseway Theatre – The Roseway Theater is operated as an independent, family owned movie house. It opened in 1924. Recently restored, the movie theater features superior digital picture and sound quality. 1st run movies are just $8. Folks rave about the popcorn here!
Fairley’s Pharmacy – Fairley’s Pharmacy is an independent, full-service pharmacy and soda fountain that has been locally owned and operated since 1913. We offer all of the medications and services of a modern pharmacy, but with the friendly, personalized service of an independent business. At Fairley’s Pharmacy, we believe that being a local independent pharmacy means providing healthcare and compounding services to our patients that are customized to meet their needs. Stop by today and experience what personalized care for over 100 years feels like.
Ed’s House of gems – Everything for the Rockhound! This old school rock shop is a must for rock hounds and a fun place to check out for folks that are not. They are a cornerstone of the Roseway Business community. Check out their huge collection of the Oregon state rock – The Thunderegg or stock up lapidary supplies.
Ohana Hawaiian Cafe – It all started as a far-fetched dream; to pursue our passion for good, satisfying food and our love for serving people by opening our own restaurant. Beginning with our age-old family recipes, all the way to the server bringing your dish, it is our goal that each and every one of our guests will experience a warmth that can only be felt when around family. After all, Ohana does mean family. We welcome you to join us and be a part of it.
Cameo Cafe – Cameo Café’s menu is packed with everything from traditional breakfast items, such as our buttermilk pancakes and omelets, to our Korean-inspired dinner items like the Bulgogi Burger. We’ve served our local community delectable dishes for more than 20 years.

Ok, here’s my snapshot.
I moved to Portland in October of 1998, moved for love. I’ve been a licensed real estate broker in Oregon since 2000 and would describe myself as a general practitioner helping people navigate residential, investment, and owner-user commercial markets as well as doing some residential tenant representation.
My work experience has ranged from swinging a hammer to brokering Eurodollar Futures. Me and my husband and two cats live in the Overlook/Arbor Lodge neighborhood, together we have built a 20-door rental portfolio and even run a small Airbnb business.
I am originally from Traverse City, MI (NW lower MI), and graduated from Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, MI. My quarter-life crisis was spent crewing/hitchhiking on sailing yachts around the Caribbean, British Isles, and Mediterranean Sea for three years. My mid-life crisis was spent with my partner sailing from Portland, OR down to Mexico and hanging out for a year. I'm good with crises. I work with buyers, sellers, and tenants who are all looking to thread the housing needle.
