Serving Portland’s 97229 & 97231 with Integrity and Heart
Real estate isn’t just about properties — it’s about people. It’s about trust, clarity, and the kind of professionalism that helps families, investors, and business leaders move forward with confidence.
As a Global Real Estate Advisor with Engel & Völkers Portland Rose City, I’ve had the privilege of serving clients across two of the most distinctive areas in Oregon: 97229 and 97231. Together, they represent both the energy and the peace of Portland’s northwest — where luxury homes meet open landscapes, and opportunity meets authenticity.
My Commitment to Clients and Community
I don’t claim perfection, but I do strive for consistency, integrity, and steady service. These are the principles that guide my work every day:
Integrity in the details — Every signature, showing, and word should reflect honesty and care.
Respect as the foundation — Every client, lender, and colleague deserves dignity and professionalism.
Excellence without ego — Quiet confidence and craftsmanship matter more than flash or noise.
Language that builds trust — Clean, professional communication is part of who I am; clients should always feel comfortable and respected.
Healthy boundaries — Clear time management allows me to stay focused, balanced, and fully present.
Faith-driven service — Real estate is stewardship. It’s a calling to help people find stability and peace, not just a place to live.
Local roots, global reach — I serve my neighbors in the northwest Portland area while connecting clients to Engel & Völkers’ worldwide network.
