About Me

Having a family history of 60+ years in the Seattle real estate market lead to my great desire to continue the tradition of working in real estate. Being a native "Seattleite" and raised on Mercer Island, my knowledge of the Puget Sound area made it even more inevitable that I become a professional in the real estate arena. While obtaining my Bachelor‘s degree and a business minor at Seattle Pacific University, I managed my family's real estate investments. I obtained my license in 1994 and have been an active full time selling agent ever since. My area of expertise includes the Eastside & Mercer Island as well as Seattle, helping many individuals and families with their real estate needs. The phonetic (rood) meaning of my name may not be polite, but I am!
