A Pacific Northwesterner Originally and Again...
I grew up in Oregon and Washington, lived in the Eastern United States and abroad and returned to Oregon because I love Portland's friendly people, its vibrant downtown, interesting neighborhoods, and proximity to outdoor activities.
Before Real Estate There Was...
 A degree from Washington State University that launched me on a Government career taking me to Washington, DC, Atlanta, New York, Boston, and overseas. I also obtained a masters degree from Georgetown University along the way.
Now Is The Time...

Beyond All That...
 My husband, Rolf, and I take walks with our Wirehaired Vizslas, CB and Flanders, indulge them and her kitty companion Dolcetta, and when time permits enjoy hiking and fly fishing. I am active in the American Association of University Women and am a volunteer driver for Meals on Wheels.
We explore the Pacific Northwest when time permits. Here I am tree climbing in an "Old Growth" forest in Oregon. According to Pacific Tree Climbing Institute in Eugene, the Douglas Fir was over 600 years old and about 250 feet in height. The view was terrific at about 200 feet.

Meet Shelli Gowdy (My Assistant)...
I grew up in Oregon and was graduated from Oregon State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree. My career in real estate began in 2006. After a ‘vacation’ in Hawaii which lasted 25 years, my family and I returned to Oregon and settled in the Portland area.
While living on the island of Oahu, I worked as a supervisor in an insurance firm that required attention to detail and the ability to work with people. My husband and I bought and sold several homes during our time in Hawaii, renovating some of them along the way. Thus began my interest in the real estate process.
I enjoy working with Susan and her clients, buyers and sellers alike, and I am thrilled to be back in the Portland area. Portland is a wonderful city, and its close proximity to the beach and the alpine playground of Mt. Hood is an added bonus. My son will tell you that he transitioned from surfboard to snowboard in no time at all. The transition to the climate change, however, took a bit longer.
I look forward to being of service to Susan’s clients and upholding Susan’s and Windermere’s goal of a positive experience throughout each and every transaction.
