Hi, I'm Heather
I'm a mom, a Michigan transplant, a realtor, and a small business owner — and somehow it all makes perfect sense together. I packed up my life in Portland, Oregon, moved cross-country with my family, and landed in West Michigan. And honestly? I fell completely in love with it here.
Whether you're buying your first home, selling the one you've outgrown, or making a big move to a brand new city — I get it. I've been through the excitement, the stress, and all the emotions that come with one of the biggest decisions of your life. That experience doesn't leave you — and it's why I care about connecting with my clients in a personal way.
I care deeply about the people and places that make a community feel like home. I'm drawn to neighborhoods with character — the ones with local shops worth discovering, streets worth walking, and neighbors worth knowing. But I also have a soft spot for wide open spaces, a little land, and room to just exhale. Finding the right fit for your life, whatever that looks like, is what drives me.
When I'm not helping people buy or sell, you can find me running Sea of Roses, my small candle company, tackling home projects in our new house, or exploring everything West Michigan has to offer with my husband and our toddler son — always on the hunt for open roads or the next new-to-us place.
I'm not here to pretend I have it all together. I'm just someone who loves this state, loves this work, and will show up for you every single step of the way.
I'd love to connect — whether you're ready to make a move or just starting to think about what's next.
