I began my Real Estate career in 1988, after completing a 26-year career as a U.S. Naval Flight Officer. I was recognized as Sales Associate of the year several of my first years of business and was designated Associate Broker in 1991. During portions of the ensuing years, my knowledge and experience has been enhanced through training and work as an Appraiser, Property Manager, Office Broker and Land Development Specialist. I make the most of my education, training, and experience to satisfy clients' needs and to minimize the stress often associated with real estate transactions. I am active in the community, member and past President of the Puyallup South Hill Rotary Club, member of the Tacoma-Pierce County Association of Realtors as well as the Washington and National Association of Realtors, Northwest Multiple Listing Service and Commercial Brokers Association.
