Some chapters in life feel like a natural return home — even when the address is new.

After many successful years serving Kamloops and a broad network of small towns and rural communities, I’m excited to be building the next chapter of my real estate business while fully embracing life in Grand Forks, BC. This move isn’t just about geography — it’s about alignment. Slower mornings, river walks, meaningful connection, and a lifestyle that reflects the way I live and the way I serve my clients.

While Grand Forks is a new market for me professionally, it carries a deep sense of familiarity. My husband grew up here, and his family has strong roots in the area dating back to the 1970s. After returning for his class reunion in the summer of 2025, we found ourselves drawn back again and again. The mountains, rivers, lakes, small-town friendliness, thriving local businesses, and abundance of recreation checked every box on our “next chapter” wish list.

Before long, we were watching the market not as an agent — but as buyers. When we found our home on Riverside Drive — one that could host our large blended family, entertain colleagues and friends, and welcome holidays, celebrations, and everyday life — we knew we had found something special. We were captivated, and we’re grateful to now call this community home.

A Career Built on Education, Advocacy & Results

My real estate career was shaped by years of living in and serving small towns, including Lillooet and Ashcroft, while representing buyers and sellers across a large rural territory that spanned Clinton to Lytton and Gold Bridge to Barrière. Over the years, I’ve successfully helped hundreds of clients navigate purchases and sales across diverse property types — from in-town homes to remote acreages and lifestyle properties.

Serving such a broad and varied region required adaptability, strong logistics, and a deep respect for the unique challenges rural real estate presents. I’m known for guiding clients through both straightforward and complex transactions with patience, clarity, and calm confidence. From first-time buyers to multi-generational family homes, farms, and luxury properties, I bring experience, strategy, and heart to every file.

I am well versed in rural and environmental considerations, including riparian areas, water potability and quantity, water licensing, invasive species, zoning, wells and water systems, sewage systems, environmental concerns, wildfire hazards, and wood heating systems — knowledge that is critical when working outside major urban centres.

I’m proud to be a consistent top-producing agent, a multi-year ICON achiever, and an active participant in professional organizations focused on excellence and ethical practice. I also hold the designations of Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR®), Seniors Real Estate Specialist (SRES®), and Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist (CLHMS®) — credentials that reflect my commitment to education, specialization, and delivering a higher level of service.

A Career Rooted in Guiding People Through Life’s Transitions

Long before real estate, my work was always centered on people, place, and care.

I’ve lived and worked throughout small-town British Columbia, building businesses and supporting families in communities where trust, reputation, and follow-through truly matter. I was the owner and operator of an equine-based eco-tourism operation and worked closely with land stewards, agrologists, and rural property owners — experiences that strengthened my understanding of land use, stewardship, and responsible rural living.

Alongside this chapter, I spent many years in integrative health, promoting and marketing healthcare practitioners while coaching individuals using medically designed protocols to support metabolic conditions. This work required deep listening, education, accountability, and trust — helping people navigate change during vulnerable and high-emotion periods of their lives.

I was also deeply involved in improving access to rural maternity care, teaching childbirth education and supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. Few life moments carry more emotion, uncertainty, and transformation than these, and it was an honour to walk alongside families during such pivotal transitions.

These experiences directly shape the way I practice real estate today. Buying or selling a home is often one of life’s biggest transitions, and my role is to guide, support, educate, and advocate — with steadiness, empathy, and respect.

Supporting Relocation, RCMP & Essential Service Professionals

My husband is an early retiree from the RCMP, and supporting RCMP members and essential service professionals relocating for work is something I care deeply about. I understand the pressures of transfers, time constraints, confidentiality, and the need for efficient, decisive service. Over the years, I’ve assisted multiple RCMP members and corporate clients with property acquisitions and relocations, and I truly appreciate clients who value efficiency, organization, and clear communication. Whether a move is planned or time-sensitive, I work diligently to streamline the process and respect the demands placed on those serving our communities.

Why Full-Service Matters — Especially in Rural Markets

Having lived most of my life in small towns and rural communities, I understand firsthand why full-service real estate is critical outside of major urban centres. Buyers need clear information. Sellers need strong exposure. And both deserve a professional who can bridge local insight with modern marketing.

Every listing I represent receives a comprehensive marketing package including professional photography, video, 3D tours, floor plans, drone footage, and targeted digital exposure — not because it’s trendy, but because it works. Rural and lifestyle properties deserve the same — if not greater — care, strategy, and visibility as urban homes.

Why I Choose to Work With eXp Realty

I’ve intentionally chosen to continue my career with eXp Realty because it allows me to deliver big-market resources with small-town service. The brokerage’s collaborative culture, world-class education, innovative technology, and global referral network are especially powerful for rural agents and their clients.

I also value the opportunity to mentor newer agents, collaborate with experienced professionals, and continually grow my business through strong affiliations and relationships. Connection matters to me — within my brokerage, across industries, and within the communities I serve.

Life Beyond Real Estate

When I’m not working, you’ll find me gathering around the table, tending our garden, sourcing food locally, hiking, paddleboarding, fishing, and soaking up everything the outdoors has to offer. I’m a foodie at heart, passionate about farm-to-plate living, foraging, and creating meaningful moments through shared meals and conversation.

I also enjoy learning more about my husband’s Mennonite heritage and thoughtfully infusing those values into our home. We are empty nesters with grown children and an ever-expanding circle of grandchildren, and we love travel and new experiences — while always valuing the grounding comfort of community and home.

A Thoughtful, Human Approach to Real Estate

Real estate is never just about property — it’s about people, timing, transitions, and trust. My role is to listen carefully, communicate clearly, advocate fiercely, and make the process feel manageable — even enjoyable.

If you’re buying, selling, or relocating to Grand Forks or Boundary Country, I’d love to connect. Whether you’re ready now or simply planning ahead, you’ll always find a no-pressure, supportive conversation here.
