You can expect a commitment to honesty and professional integrity with a genuine concern for her client's best interest when partnering together.
Growing up on an Iowa farm as the oldest of many children, negotiating became her specialty at an early age. She is grateful for her upbringing and the lessons she is carried to her own children in understanding the value of work ethic, kindness, empathy, loyalty, a responsibility to her local community, and beyond. They love their community and believe in buying local and supporting their local farmers and the local COOP. Farming and the love of the land is in her bones. She has a great appreciation for the earth and learned from her father how to look at the lay of the land in a forward-thinking way. This is a gift for which she is grateful. She has an extensive background in renovations, remodeling, and has a great appreciation for reclaimed materials and their history.
Her family arrived 17 years ago to the Upper Valley knowing no one. A neighbor stopped over to wish them hello and said, "You may not know it now, but you just bought a slice of heaven!" She could not agree more! The Upper Valley is her home and the Dartmouth community welcoming. She often refers to the Upper Valley as a "melting pot"- people from around the world who has found this special little place on earth to call home. It offers mountains to hike, bike, and ski, clean water to drink, swim, kayak, and canoe, streams, and waterfalls to follow, and a sense of community. The seasons are stunning and the natural beauty rich and breathtaking. They enjoy the great art at The HOOD, lectures and great film at Dartmouth College, art and continuing education with Dartmouth College Osher, cooking classes at the COOP, AVA Gallery, Opera North, Northern Stage, King Arthur, Dan and Whit's General Store, the local farmer's markets, and many other great offerings. Their villages are welcoming and stunningly quintessential in their beauty.
