Here's how I work with you: 

I’ve owned homes, renovated them (like stripped them to the studs and rebuilt them!), lived in them, and helped others do the same—sometimes for the very first time.

I don’t believe real estate should feel rushed, confusing, or transactional. Buying or selling a home is a life moment, and it deserves thoughtful guidance.

My background in teaching and real-world renovation gives my clients something rare: someone who explains the why, not just the what—so they can move forward with confidence.

Buying Your Home

• Step-by-step guidance for first-time or experienced buyers, with support at every stage
• An education-first approach—never pressure-driven.   
• Clear insight so you understand the home and feel confident in your decision

Selling Your Home

• Strategic pricing guided by market insight and honest advice
• Thoughtful preparation -including optional staging - and strong social media positioning
• Clear communication from start to finish, from pricing and showings to negotiation

Real-World Insight

• Clear guidance on what’s worth repairing or replacing—and what isn’t—when buying or selling
• A trained eye for both potential and red flags
• Advice grounded in lived experience, with years of hands-on renovation and formal carpentry apprenticeship
