As child I’d gather sticks and rocks to build forts in the woods behind my parents home in suburban Minneapolis. I loved playing with different layouts, materials and imagined a life there.

Years later, I elevated my interest in homes through remodeling and DIY projects on the east and west sides of the Twin Cities. I developed a rapport with contractors. I asked questions and asked to help on the projects to get experience. People noticed I knew what I was talking about; friends and family began to lean on me for advice. I was used to giving advice—I was also a registered nurse who worked in inpatient psychiatry.

As friends asked me questions about remodeling, I noticed that many were unsure if moving was right for them and also unsure if their current house could be changed to reflect their current lifestyle. They loved their neighborhood, but wanted a mudroom and a new kitchen. They wondered how much it would be to finish the basement given their current mortgage rate was better than anything they could get now. Some needed more space for a growing family.

At the encouragement of those same friends and family, I am pivoting from my years as a trusted nurse, to helping people another way: by using my knowledge in real estate, home design, and repair. Regardless of whether they remodel their current home or move, I want to help people feel good about where they live.

Why pick me? I have extensive DIY experience (the right way) in:
bathroom remodels, kitchen remodels, hardwood floor resurfacing, window replacement, plumbing, landscaping, electrical projects

I am a Coldwell Banker Realtor

I have affiliations with trusted and well established local design/build firms. Many of these firms I have personally hired as a regular homeowner before launching TPC, so I know how they treat people.

Perhaps you like your current neighborhood and mortgage and can’t decide whether to remodel and stay or move? I can analyze both options- in tandem!
