about
I’m a Washington State REALTOR® with John L. Scott Real Estate, helping buyers and sellers throughout Bellingham, Whatcom County, Snohomish County, and Island County. I work with people at all stages of life, but I have a special place in my heart for clients relocating to the Pacific Northwest — especially those discovering Bellingham and our coastal communities for the first time.
Originally from the Seattle area and now happily rooted in Bellingham, I understand what it’s like to make a move, explore new neighborhoods, and figure out where you truly feel at home. My goal is to make that transition easier, clearer, and a lot less stressful.
