Having grown up between the small towns of the Willamette Valley and the big cities of the Bay Area, I have seen the best of both city and rural life. Although there are many wonderful things I miss about the city, my wife and I have chosen McMinnville as the place we want to settle and call home while we raise our children. I have come to love everything this area, and all the surrounding areas have to offer. The good people, the proximity to the ocean, mountains, beautiful rivers & lakes, the vineyards, and yes…even the rain! I am married to my wife Elizabeth and have two school age children, Caleb and Alaina. We enjoy exploring and spending time together camping, boating, riding bikes and any other adventures we can find. I personally enjoy riding my Harley on the local scenic back roads and playing music.
I have worked in the Willamette Valley for over 20 years now in industries like insurance and financial services, to owning a “paint your own” pottery shop on the historic 3rd street in McMinnville, to most recently in senior living, home health, and in-home care. Through my past experiences, I have realized I have a passion for being a resource and helping people through life’s big decisions. My background is primarily marketing, sales, and community relations, but I consider myself more as a counselor and trusted advisor.
I most enjoy the process of finding solutions by first fully understanding my clients wants and needs, then presenting them with the best options. I take pride in providing the most suitable and beneficial guidance while making the experience enjoyable. I believe If I haven’t put a smile on your face, I haven’t done my job. Having worked in the senior living and health care industry for around 8 years, I have a firm understanding of the many options available to seniors needing to make changes and can provide a great amount of clarity and insight to those that are going through this process. I’m also thrilled to work with those first time home buyers, down-sizers, investors preparing for their future, those looking for land, or those just looking for their dream home.
I have always found Real Estate fascinating and exciting. Bella Casa is an amazing brokerage with the highest of integrity, which is why I sought them out. I feel very blessed to be a part of their team. Whether you are buying or selling, I would love nothing more than to be a part of your team as well!
