Finding a real estate agent with whom you are comfortable is key to a pleasant real estate experience. An informed, reliable agent can be a valuable lifetime resource.

I was licensed in Real Estate in 2006 and my husband, Ryan, in 2012 after having spent many years working in the field of residential and commercial energy conservation. That experience enables us to bring a fresh, new perspective to the business of selling real estate. We have toured tens of thousands of homes across the state of Montana with an eye toward efficiency, giving us good perspective on structures of all vintages.

With strong skills in customer service, problem solving, budgeting, and a very comprehensive understanding of residential and commercial building components, we are well equipped to represent clients on both listing and buying sides of a transaction.

We encourage density, walkability, and the preservation and restoration of Helena’s lovely historic urban areas and neighborhoods. Additionally, for those desiring a little more elbow room, we have extensive experience representing buyers and sellers of rural real estate in all of the surrounding Lewis & Clark, Jefferson, and Broadwater counties, including residential, recreation properties, bare land, or farm/ranch. The nice thing about Helena is there are even some properties that satisfy both urban and rural cravings at the same time!

Over the past 21 years, we have remodeled three homes including a comprehensive restoration/update of our 1892 Helena home. In 2012 we were honored with a Lewis and Clark County Historic Preservation Award; evidence that we truly recognize and can help you rationally evaluate the potential in every property!

On a personal note, we are down to earth Helenans who are deeply connected to the community. I love to cook, garden, and hike with my dog, Zoka. Ryan loves live music, football, and in his limited spare time is building a cabin in the Castle Mountains out of an old, repurposed grain bin. We are dedicated to supporting local business and caring for the planet. We attend countless local fundraisers and enjoy gathering with friends for dinner and drinks.

In January of 2009, we committed to making a donation with each closing to the Alternative Energy Resources Organization and their efforts to build sustainability, advocate for alternative energy, and strengthen Montana farmers. Check them out at aeromt.org. We do the same for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Helena, http://www.bbbs-helena.org/.

We have been married for 20 years and have one child. Now more than ever, we understand that priorities change as life unfolds. Regardless of your motivation, when you decide that buying or selling real estate is your next priority, allow us the opportunity to provide exceptional service.

As your Realtors, we will bring a sincere dedication to your interests and an uncommon level of experience. We will listen carefully and help you make informed decisions. We will offer open and prompt communication, straight-forward negotiation, positive energy, a good sense of humor, and a comprehensive knowledge of the process of buying and selling real estate in Helena.

Please feel comfortable contacting us any day of the week by phone, email or text.

We look forward to working with you.
