Get to Know Me

I am a full-time sales agent specializing in the Santa Ynez Valley. A 33 year resident of the Valley, my husband Thomas and I raised their two children in Solvang and now are blessed to have their grandson and family in the Valley.


My real estate experience includes 7+ years as the Association Executive of the Santa Ynez Valley Association of REALTORS and Manager of the local Multiple Listing Service. In that role I traveled throughout California and the United States hearing from industry professionals on all things real estate including real estate economics and trends, legal matters and breaking industry changes to the real estate industry. I am happy to help clients navigate the recent changes in the profession of real estate. 


My career history includes work in school finance, construction management and non profit management. I also served for three years on the City of Solvang General Plan Advisory Committee. I own and manage two investment properties, one a long term rental and one a beach vacation rental so if you are interested in considering a first time real estate investment property let’s talk.


My professional memberships include the National Association of Realtors®, California Association of Realtors®, Santa Ynez Valley Association of Realtors®, and the Santa Ynez Valley MLS. I love the Santa Ynez Valley and have served on the People Helping People, Solvang Library, AYSO, and Bethania Preschool Boards and volunteered for many nonprofits. I’ve spent the past five years in daily service to the community through food distribution in Solvang.


 In my free time, you will find me in my happy places: at the Alisal Ranch gym; walking in Solvang; and at the beach or pool with my family.
