Real estate for magical beings
I became a realtor because I want Queer folks and other unique, fabulous, and marginalized people to have access to stable housing, land stewardship, and generational wealth.
As a property witch, I work as a matchmaker between the spirits of houses and land, and my clients who seek to inhabit and tend them.
I serve the goddess Portlandia by queering and re-enchanting Her city—one house at a time.
Let me be your real estate
Faerie godmother!
As part of the Property Weirdos, I help folks who need a different kind of realtor navigate the complexity and overwhelm of buying or selling a house. As your agent and advocate, I'm here to encourage and empower you with wise counsel, helpful resources, and fierce woo.

Realty may be closer to reality than you think!
Feeling discouraged about ever being able to buy a house? I work with a team of wizards whose superpower is making a way out of no way! We specialize in working with co-buyers and house-hackers to find creative ways to share costs and generate income.
Home is the journey we make.
This is how the world knows
where we are.

Working for land justice
I donate a percentage of my commissions to organizations working for land justice to make reparations for the theft of lives, labor, and land on which the system of real estate was established.

About me
For over three decades, I've lived in an enchanted SE Portland collective house called Butter. Along with four humans, two cats, and a fuzzy dog named Bear, Butter holds space for community with a front-porch mural, ever-changing interactive altars, a giant kimchi crock, and Shabutter, our 15-year Friday night potluck tradition.
During that time, I've served as a Queer spiritual activist and ceremonialist in Portland and beyond. My magical specialties include working with spirits of place, domestic templekeeping, kitchen witchery, and ancestral relations.
In my professional life, I've enjoyed a 20-year career as a freelance marketing copywriter and brand strategist. In 2023, I saw the AI-generated writing on the wall and pivoted to real estate as a way to use my privilege and my gifts on behalf of the city and the community I love.
I love to sing, cook, make altars, go camping, walk on Mt. Tabor, and row and paddle the rivers of Cascadia.
