Experience

1. Escrow Officer at Western Title

   Western Title & Escrow Company

   Oct 2019 — Present · Eugene, OR, US

   I have been in the title and escrow industry for about 8 years. My primary focus is closing residential real estate transactions. I typically grow my business by connect with Real Estate agents, Mortgage Loan Officers, Builders and Investors. I feel so incredibly blessed to get to be a part of the real estate process with our clients. Whether it\'s a first time home buyer or an investor, I believe it\'s important to celebrate ALL things. I believe the experience at the closing table is a good indication on how our clients will remember the entire process. If it goes well, is fun or meaningful, they\'ll remember their entire journey in a better light. Let\'s be real, we see people at their most stressful times in their lives. Everything is rushed, their life is in boxes and their world is turned upside down. My goal is to help them forget that stress for the moments they are with me. We\'ll get through the closing documents quickly, efficiently and explained at their level with excitement and a smile. I often hear,\"Wow, that was easier than I thought it would be.and more fun\". This is what I live for. For some it isn\'t a happy time. We\'ll get through this together with compassion and grace. My goal is to help people leave my room feeling cared for and remembering the memories they are leaving behind are still theirs to keep. Nothing can take that away from them and this new chapter in life is worth celebrating too.Prior to real estate I had about 5 years experience in banking, lending and investing after owning and operating our cafe/coffee shop, Brewed Awakening. Our family loves to spend time outdoors, we love to camp, we love being on the water in our boat and one of our favorite things to do is get out on the lake to catch sunrises and sunsets. In the summer months you may get annoyed by how much we do this. We love catching the beauty of nature and spending time celebrating life. we don\'t want to miss a thing. Even the little things turn into the big things.
