By day I work in the busy real estate market that is Portland, Oregon (yes there's a reason people keep moving here, it's beautiful!). I have two amazing daughters in college, a significant other in the cannabis biz, and a Maltese named Louie.

I have a lifelong love of travel and when I'm not waist-deep in a home sale or purchase I'm researching destinations, deals, and opportunities to travel the world. At least 2-3 times a year I travel with a medical volunteer organization and assist in the operating room, and every single time I pinch myself that I get to be a part of something so awesome.

In 2019 I began a travel blog called HereonaLayover.com. My mission is to inspire others to explore and celebrate our amazing world, and to make a positive impact on people’s lives through travel and philanthropy. I am also the Portland Chapter Leader of The Nomadic Network, a global community of travel-enthusiasts who support and inspire one another to travel better, cheaper, and longer.

I'm so excited to be part of Travel Massive, and I look forward to meeting other world travelers and sharing stories and ideas!
