I was born in Midcoast Maine and was blessed to spend some formative years living abroad. First, I was with my family in Grenada and Venezuela as a young child for four years, and later in high school, spending a year as an exchange student in Valencia, Spain, where I became fluent in Spanish.

I was born in Midcoast Maine and was blessed to spend some formative years living abroad. First, I was with my family in Grenada and Venezuela as a young child for four years, and later in high school, spending a year as an exchange student in Valencia, Spain, where I became fluent in Spanish. These experiences blossomed my love story for outdoor adventure, travel, good food, and good people. This unique start encouraged me to dream big and find value in every human. This made me into the person I am today: a highly goal-oriented go-getter seeking opportunities to meet, interact with, and help new people. 

I attended Northeastern University, where I studied the Music Industry with a minor in Business and Photography. Upon graduating, I set out to see as much of the world as possible. I spent a couple of seasons in the beautiful snow-covered mountains of Colorado, explored the magical lands of India, Nepal, and Southeast Asia, and ultimately landed in Australia, where I worked and lived for a year. These transformative experiences presented a life full of vibrance from which I developed a keen eye for interior design, patterns, and colors. Interior and home design have always been a passion of mine and one of the reasons I resonate so strongly with the real estate world.

After my travels, I returned stateside feeling an urge to slow down and reestablish my roots in Maine. As so many 20-something Mainers do, I chose to live in Portland and worked in its busy food scene. Eight years later, after a whirlwind of a year of experiencing the US and its epic national parks via “van life,” the midcoast called me home. I realized just how special of an area it is, having everything I want, need, and value in a home: a strong community, family, and endless opportunities for outdoor adventures. 

I have been happily rooted in the service industry for my adult life. Throughout my years in the industry, I have cultivated a work ethic based on attentiveness and sincerity. I have also developed a deep understanding and appreciation of working with people.

I currently live in Rockland and am fortunate to be a proud homeowner. I am a big outdoors enthusiast and am always primed for adventures. I particularly love hiking with my son Otis strapped to my back, my dog in tow and snowboarding whenever possible. 

I take pride in crafting well-prepared plans. Creating and executing a successful plan takes initiative, diligence, and knowledge. This includes knowing the value of asking for help and the depth of support your team can provide. The key to my continued success is building solid client relationships based on support, trust, transparency, and open communication. With my deep-rooted ties to and knowledge of the area and the unparalleled support of Cates Realty, the sky’s the limit. I would be honored to join your real estate dream team. So, let’s start dreaming!
