About
With over 20 years in client service, negotiations and contract management, I understand the importance of building solid relationships for successful outcomes. I have lived and owned homes in Victoria for 25 years and raised my family here. The communities around Greater Victoria are each unique and all have something special to offer. I travel regularly "up-island" and am familiar with some of those communities as well.
I'm as comfortable helping new home buyers as I am helping seniors transition to smaller homes. And I'm equally comfortable in the luxury home market - whether it's oceanfront or lakefront - downtown penthouses - acreages or wineries.
I'm a member at the Royal Victoria Yacht Club, and served on it's Executive in 2013-2014. I also dedicate spare time to my community as President of the Oak Bay Sea Rescue Society - a non-profit, all-volunteer Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue station (RCMSAR - Station 33) based out of Oak Bay Marina. Past affiliations are with Oaklands Community Association and the Victoria Youth Empowerment Society.
Whether you're local to Victoria and the Islands or searching from abroad, I invite you to browse my website and call or email me with any questions you have. I look forward to helping you with your home ownership needs.
