MOR4Kids - MOR Committee

As a proud member of the Missoula real estate community, I believe that every client deserves more than just a transaction—they deserve an advocate, a strategist, and someone who genuinely cares about their future.

With a background in sales leadership, a knack for creative problem-solving, and a passion for helping people get the most out of every opportunity, I approach real estate as both an advisor and a relentless advocate. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, seasoned investor, or navigating a major life change, I’ll bring clear communication, strong negotiation, and a steady hand to the process.

Montana’s wild spaces are my second home, whether I’m hiking local trails or spending time with my dogs. My mission is simple: make your home journey as rewarding and stress-free as possible—while always keeping things real.

If you’re looking for a REALTOR® who treats you like a partner, not a number, let’s connect and make your goals happen.
