Lisa was born and raised in the Portland, OR area, growing up as the daughter of a custom home builder—so you could say she's been swinging a hammer for as long as she can remember. Her childhood was spent surrounded by construction sites, lumber, and the smell of freshly built homes, which sparked a lifelong passion for real estate. When Lisa wasn't immersed in the building world, she was riding horses and participating in 4H, enjoying an active and hands-on upbringing. Today, Lisa's passions revolve around spending time with family, boating, crocheting, and caring for her beloved fur babies—four cats and one dog. She also loves working in the yard and keeping busy around the house; sitting still is never her forte! Real estate has always been close to Lisa's heart, thanks to her background. When she met her husband, a licensed broker, she decided to pursue her passion and join him in the real estate profession. Together, they've built a dynamic team that combines their unique skills to offer clients a personalized and strategic home buying and selling experience. Lisa particularly enjoys working with first-time homebuyers—their excitement is contagious. She is committed to showing them as many homes as they need without ever pressuring them into a decision. For sellers, Lisa loves offering advice on how to declutter, stage, and get their home "show-ready" to achieve the best possible price. The tagline of their team, "It's Your Move," reflects Lisa's approach to real estate: like a game of chess, it's all about strategy. Hard work, ethics, attention to detail, and honesty are values Lisa lives by, ensuring that every client's experience is smooth and transparent. When she's not working, Lisa enjoys puttering around the house and yard, always finding something to keep her busy. While she speaks only English, her straightforward and genuine communication style is key to building strong connections with her clients.
