I was born and raised in southwest Washington and have lived in the northwest for nearly all of my life. I enjoy spending time with my daughter, snowboarding, gardening, camping, cooking, architecture, and event planning.
My career started when I joined the army at 19, stationed in Ft Lewis, Washington for 4 years and served one tour in Iraq. In 2012 I attended college at PSU to complete my bachelor’s degree in Political Science. It was here that I learned the value of public service, and how my service impacted lives in a positive way. I moved on to insurance sales from there, only to discover I wasn’t getting the personal connection with people that I really wanted.
When I bought my first home, everything seemed to click for me. I realized that owning a home was the quickest and safest way for me to build wealth. I found that I wanted to help other people achieve this dream as well and provide a public service to help middle class Americans to build their own wealth so that one day, they would not have to live paycheck to paycheck like I was.
My mission became to serve people in Northwest Oregon and Southwest Washington in ways that I know how; by educating myself in my trade, using and seeking additional resources, being available, forming genuine connections with people, and volunteering my time and energy to the people and organizations that need my help.
