I began my career in residential real estate sales in Los Angeles in 2003 as an agent with Sotheby’s International Realty, affiliating with Windermere when I moved to Tacoma in 2010. I work primarily with buyers and sellers in Tacoma, University Place and Gig Harbor, and I'm committed to delivering exceptional customer service. As a result, most of my current clients have worked with me before or been referred to me by past clients.Prior to my career in real estate, I worked as a cancer genetic counselor for Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and USC’s Norris Cancer Center. My counseling skills have served me well in real estate, enabling me to gently but effectively orient buyers and sellers to the increasingly complex housing marketplace. I provide my clients with invaluable guidance, helping them to prioritize their wants and needs.I earned a B.A. in English from Wesleyan University and an M.S. in Human Genetics from Sarah Lawrence College. I'm currently serving on the board of trustees for United Way of Pierce County and Vashon Center for the Arts. Past board service includes Tacoma Arts Live, the Pierce County Library Foundation and the University of Washington Tacoma.
