Helping people buy the right home is one of my favorite things in the whole wide world.

Expertise
I love learning and continue to build my experience and knowledge toolkit every day to help my clients. I attended the Program on Negotiation at Harvard Law School in 2015 which transformed the way I negotiate and gives me a significant advantage in crafting purchases and sales. I incorporate multiple modalities into a unique perspective, combining top negotiation strategies, game theory, pricing philosophy, and consumer psychology with intuition and experience.

Houses & Homes
I absolutely adore houses, from tiny charming ones to sprawling palatial ones, and everything in between. I get excited opening a front door during a showing on a sunny Saturday morning. I am passionate about houses and helping people find the one that fits them. From hardwood floors and ancient boilers to breaker boxes and eavestroughs, these things are all a wonderous art to me.

Hospitality
I grew up in the construction and hospitality industries. Construction helps with everything-houses and hospitality adds an innate service style that I enjoy. I am pleased to anticipate the needs of my clients, take care of details, and craft an exceptional experience. Moving is often a major life milestone and I love transforming what could be dull or stressful into an enjoyable and memorable start to a new chapter.

Passion
I started selling real estate in 2005 while at university in London, Ontario. I came home to Manitoba in 2007 and have been selling here ever since. Real estate is the only career I’ve ever had - it is truly my vocation. I have two aunts and one uncle that sold real estate. As a child family vacations often included open houses in the areas we were visiting - real estate opportunities can be found anywhere! It was my job to turn on the lights before showings when my family was moving. Today, when I walk around a home flipping light switches I think to myself how I’ve been training for this all my life.
