Just Listed! Architect’s Own in Salem

Born and raised in North East Portland, I’m a real estate broker who believes people deserve more than surface-level representation when making one of life’s biggest decisions. My approach is rooted in empathy, mutual trust, respect, and honest communication. I strive to be accessible and relatable while still offering a high level of expertise and market insight. I’ve been representing buyers and sellers across a wide range of situations since the pandemic, and I’m especially passionate and aligned with clients navigating major or difficult life transitions, fixer properties, first-time buyers, and those who need thoughtful guidance through complex decisions.

I take pride in my emotional intelligence and ability to connect with clients on a personal level. You are never just a transaction or a deal. You’re a person going through a major life moment, often layered with stress, excitement, and vulnerability, and you deserve to be treated as such. It’s my goal to be a steady, trusted guide: listening closely, communicating clearly, and advocating fiercely for my clients’ best interests. Always.

Throughout my career and outside of it, I’ve developed a strong appreciation for architecture, unique character, and quality craftsmanship. I love helping clients see the potential beyond the surface, helping bring their vision to life, or help in the creation of their vision. Before real estate, I worked in Portland kitchens as both a cook and kitchen manager. These experiences taught me discipline, collaboration, and how to remain calm and cool under pressure, developing a calm, solutions-oriented approach in uncertain times.

My heart lies with my inspiring and intelligent partner, Tristen, and our dogs, Raylan and Xolo. Outside of work, I spend my time skateboarding, playing and writing music, photographing the city, and creating videos — creative outlets that reflect and enhance my curiosity, attention to detail, and love for Portland’s culture and community.
