Many buyers moving to the Mt. Hood area aren’t just looking for a house — they’re searching for land, space, and a lifestyle. I specialize in helping buyers, sellers, and investors find rural homes, acreage properties, homesteads, Mt. Hood cabins, and renovation opportunities throughout the Sandy and greater Clackamas County area.

As a real estate professional serving Sandy, Estacada, Boring, Damascus, Eagle Creek, and the surrounding Mt. Hood communities, I work with clients seeking everything from single-family homes and investment properties to rural land, cabins, small farms, homesteads, and acreage properties. My goal is to help clients secure properties that align with both their lifestyle and long-term financial goals.

Before becoming a Realtor, I spent over a decade building a successful career as a full-time hairstylist. That experience shaped my strengths in client service, communication, and relationship building, and taught me how to truly listen and understand what clients are hoping to create for themselves and their families.

Since 2017, I have also worked alongside my partner renovating and remodeling single-family homes. Through these projects I’ve gained hands-on experience in construction, home renovation, residential design, and property improvement strategy. This practical background allows me to help buyers evaluate renovation potential, property value, and long-term investment opportunities, while helping sellers position their homes effectively in the market.

With hands-on renovation experience, I help clients see beyond what a property is today and recognize what it can become — whether that’s a Mt. Hood cabin retreat, a homestead property, a rural lifestyle home, or a value-add renovation project.

I guide buyers and sellers through every stage of the real estate process including home searches, property valuation, listing strategy, marketing, negotiation, inspections, financing coordination, and closing. I also leverage MLS technology and market data to provide real-time listing alerts and insight into the Sandy, Oregon and Mt. Hood housing market.

Outside of real estate, I’m passionate about land stewardship, sustainable living, and rural community. I enjoy growing and preserving food, raising animals, and helping families find homes and land where they can build a meaningful life.

If you’re looking for homes, cabins, land, acreage, homesteads, or rural property in the Sandy, Oregon or Mt. Hood area, I’d love to help guide you through the process.
