Growing up in Vancouver with a Real Estate family of three generations has enabled me to identify the vast differences within our community that I have grown to love over the years. Whether it's the suburban life in Felida & Camas with great schools, or the ever changing downtown scene you are looking for, there seems to be a spot for everyone. Being just a few miles from Downtown Portland, an hour to Mt. Hood with three ski resorts, or an hour and a half to the Enchanting Coast lines isn't too bad either!
I have traveled extensively throughout Europe, lived in the last best place on Earth for 7 years(Montana!), and have visited most of the Ski Resort towns West of the Rockies and would not give up living in the Northwest for anything. This is and always will be home for me and my family...
When I'm not selling or investing in Real Estate with my family, I enjoy Fly-Fishing for Trout and Steelhead throughout our local rivers and Montana. Golfing at the various top courses in Clark County or Oregon is also a favorite pasttime.
When working with Taylor and I as your personal Realtors, you can be assured that any and all facets of your Real Estate transaction will be thoroughly looked after and handled with the utmost diligence. Over $40,000,000 worth of Real estate sold and counting...

As a lifelong resident of Portland/Vancouver, I have made the Northwest my home for 30 years. I obtained my degree from Washington State University and spent time studying abroad before coming back "home". My interest in real estate and my love of houses truly started at a young age.
My family's lineage in the construction and real estate industry dates back to the 1940's in Clark County. I have gained a great appreciation for all aspects of home building and selling, through direct involvement; sometimes in the form of laying floors and carpet for my father's business during summer breaks from school! Upon starting my career, I spent over six years working in the mortgage banking industry. Having had the opportunity to work on many levels of the house buying and financing experience, furthered my appreciation and desire to work in real estate. I can honestly say that I love my job!
In my free time I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, watching my daughter become a little personality, spending time outdoors and eating good food. I also love music, whether it be perusing record shops, listening to live music, or furthering my own skills by DJ-ing live in Portland. I realize that buying or selling a home is one of the most important decisions you will ever make, influenced by many factors. I am confident that my team will approach each opportunity with great respect, honesty and integrity. We look forward to meeting you!!!

With 10 years experience in the real estate field as a Certified Appraiser in both Washington and Oregon, I take great pride in knowing that I can represent a buyer or seller with realistic values in today’s turbulent market. Whether it’s bare land, new construction, condominiums, multi-family, multi-million dollar properties, or a first time home buyer in a small single family dwelling, I have the experience to determine the best selling price and also the most reasonable purchase price.
Born and raised in Vancouver, WA in 1956. I attended public schools and graduated from Hudson’s Bay High School in 1974. I attended WSU for two years in Pullman and came home to marry my high school sweet heart Joni in the summer of 1976. We have two children Bailey and Taylor who is married to Haley who together have given us our two great grandchildren, Graham and Aubrey. My interests include spending time with family, riding my Harley when the time and weather permit, hunting and fishing, giving back to the community through charity, and non- profit work with my wife Joni.
