Helping people understand Portland before they buy, sell, or make their next move.

Since 2011, Denise has helped hundreds of buyers and sellers navigate everything from first homes and cross-country relocations to move-up purchases, downsizing, estate sales, and carefully coordinated buy-sell transitions. She loves solving complex real estate puzzles and believes every client deserves a strategy as unique as the people involved.

For sellers, that means thoughtful preparation, pricing, marketing, and negotiation designed to maximize net proceeds, not simply the sale price. For buyers, it means listening carefully, asking the right questions, and helping them make confident decisions that fit their lifestyle and goals.

Denise believes informed clients make the best decisions. She creates neighborhood guides, relocation resources, and educational content that help clients understand the trade-offs, opportunities, and nuances of Portland real estate before they buy or sell.

When she’s not working, you’ll often find Denise wandering the tree-lined streets of Irvington with her English Shepherd, Daphne, cheering on her two kids from the sidelines, discovering another neighborhood coffee shop or restaurant, or planning the family’s next Pacific Northwest road trip. Her love of exploring Portland carries into her work, helping clients find not just the right home, but the neighborhood and lifestyle that feel like home.

Having lived in four of Portland’s six quadrants over the past two decades, Denise knows the city from many angles. She loves helping clients understand what makes each neighborhood unique, from schools, parks, and walkability to commute patterns, busy streets, and the little details that don’t always show up in an online listing.

Originally from Boston, Denise brings equal parts Boston blunt and Portland polite to every client relationship. She’s known for her honesty, responsiveness, and ability to make an overwhelming process feel manageable. She’s a fierce advocate when it’s time to negotiate and a thoughtful listener and problem solver throughout the process
