I started my real estate career in 2006 at my mom’s Royal LePage office in Wetaskiwin, but honestly, it began long before that. I grew up around open houses and home inspections, tagging along and watching how my mom looked after her clients.

I have always been fascinated by how people live. My parents used to call me “snoopy” because I loved seeing the inside of other people’s homes and offices and imagining how I would arrange the rooms. I could spend hours with the Sears catalogue planning out my dream bedroom, choosing imaginary furniture and bedspreads. Real estate turned out to be the grown‑up version of that same curiosity.

After university, I spent time teaching English in Japan. When I came back to Alberta, my mom encouraged me to combine that people‑first mindset with my long‑standing interest in homes and neighbourhoods, so I got licensed and joined her office. It ended up being one of the most meaningful career decisions I could have made.

Six years in a small‑town market taught me that relationships and reputation matter more than market size. When I moved back to Edmonton in 2012, I brought those fundamentals with me and built a solo practice focused on Southwest communities. I now help 50–60 families every year in neighbourhoods like Ambleside, Windermere, Terwillegar, Magrath, MacTaggart, and beyond.

I intentionally work both sides of the transaction because I don’t believe you can be an effective listing agent without understanding what buyers actually experience when they walk through a property – and vice versa. I also genuinely enjoy both roles; real estate is still fun for me, and I never get tired of stepping into new homes and imagining how people will live there. That mix of experience and curiosity helps me guide clients more strategically, whether they are buying, selling, upsizing, downsizing, or moving within Southwest Edmonton.

As an Ambleside resident for 14 years and now a Magrath homeowner, I bring both professional expertise and lived experience of Southwest Edmonton’s lifestyle, amenities, and community dynamics. I know how different areas feel day to day, not just how they look in listing photos.

As an Associate Broker and solo REALTOR® with RE/MAX Elite, you work directly with me from our first conversation to possession day. My clients benefit from strategic social media marketing that actually showcases their listings, clear and proactive communication at every stage, and the kind of personalised attention that only comes from hands‑on service from start to finish.
