About

Unlike most brokers in this area, Real Estate is my first and only career. After graduating from Lane Aviation Academy in Eugene Oregon, I was hired by Dutch Bros. Coffee to fly around the western seven states buying land and developing drive through coffee outlets.  At the end of my 10 year tenure as Director of Real Estate I moved to Portland in 2018 to begin what would become my favorite part of my real estate career: helping Portland area families buy and sell their next home. There is a quote attributed to Mark Twain that says "Buy land, they're not making any more of it." In a world filled with intangibles (NFTs, stocks, bitcoin, etc..) land is an asset, an investment, that you can literally grab and hold in your hands. I believe that beinig a home owner is the first and biggest step every American must take in order to build wealth and secure a comfortable future. The stability and enjoyment you and your family will get by being homeowners is immeasurable.

​

It is truly humbling to be there to help clients take such a big step in their lives.

I can not imagine the endless hours he put in behind the scenes to assure we were taken care of. Dale is full of sincerity, kindness, enthusiasm, and passion for his work.

Interests

The Pacific Northwest is filled with natural wonder. Hiking this vast a beautiful area never gets old. I am an avid outdoors enthusiast and hike as often as possible. I volunteer with the Mazama's and lead bi-weekly hiking adventures.  If I'm not out on a trail I'm going out on long bike rides or lap swimming at a local area pool.

My 10 year old pappy-jack, Mona, loves going on listing appointments with me. She has been my co-pilot since 2013. She loves to ride in the car and is just content curling up on the passenger seat when I'm out meeting with clients. Sunny hot weather gets in the way of our daily outings, but fall/winter/spring is perfect.
